Another thing to check about play order is to make sure that Shuffle isn't enabled on the player (if it is, there should be a little 's' next to the "[4/34]"-styled playlist order indicator on the Track info mode. Also make sure that randomize isn't selected in the properties for the playlist. You'll have to use emplode to modify this. It's somewhere in the properties for the playlist.
