When I use the Menu Creator screen and make a new motion menu and then
apply background music, the music doesn't start until the new menu is about
½ way thru the menu loop. I want it to start right off and I know it can, I just
can't find how to make it so.

Note: the final duration of your disc menu’s background music is dependent on the
time entered in the Duration field in the Playback Mode Settings window, not the
length of music file used. See "Setting Disc Playback Mode" on page 103 for more
information on setting your menu’s duration.
• click the button to add/replace the menu background music.

• trim the audio file using the playback controls and then move the sliders on
the trim bar to the desired start and end points.
• select to have the menu music gradually Fade-in or Fade-out.
• if the length of your menu music file is not as long as the specified duration,
select the Auto repeat option to loop it.

This is from the user guide pages 102-103 there is a slider bar that appears and you can set start and end times (as a percentage of the menu duration, with fade in and out. for some reason the default seems to delay to middle
