Dual Disc Problems?

Has anyone had a problem with their cd player after playing these discs? I played one for the first time (Springsteen/Devils and Dust), and the player (Marantz SACD 8260), had trouble playing the next disc (Dylan/World Gone Wrong redbook cd). Thanks for your help!

I have two players, a SONY SCD-XA9000ES and a Music Hall Maverick. The Sony plays DualDisc about half the time. The Maverick doesn't play them at all. I bought 1 DualDisc (Springsteen) and won't be buying any more.
Playing a DualDisc shouldn't, as far as I know, have any effect on any discs you might try to play afterward, unless the disc actually caused problems closing the disc drawer. Then all bets are off.

DualDisc is simply a two-sided silver disc with DVD and possible computer content on one side, and (non redbook compliant) CD content on the other.

It doesn't play in some CD players because it's thicker than a normal CD.
