"Enter" plays previous song

After launching Foobar, when I highlight a song and hit Enter, instead of playing the selected song, it plays the previous track.  Any ideas what might be causing this?

Changing Keyboard Shortcuts in Preferences? Open Preferences and look there fot Keyboard Shortcuts and sort it by Key.

Forgot to clarify - if the song is browsed to again, Enter works as expected.

No, there's nothing wrong with the keyboard shortcuts.

You must report what plugins you use, especially all UI related (like alternative UI, playlist renderers, alternative library browsers, etc.). Problem may be coming from them. You must clarify exact use case which cause problems - do you encounter this on playlist, when searching library, searching plylist, seeking from library viewer, etc.

I've been experiencing this behavior for a long time now.

Plugins:
CUI
Columns UI
ColUI ext
DUI
OSD
Popup panels

Album list
Facets
Library Tree (component, not script)
Quick search

Active DSPs: Skip silence / SoundTouch / tempo shift

Playlist organizer
Scheduler
Bookmarks
BPM analyser
Jscript panel
Liric show 3
Navigator
One way sync
Playlist attributes
Random pools
Run services

Tipical use is to create a playlist with mostly Library Tree or Facets or Quicksearch (no Albumlist and no Search)
or dragging files directly from a folder into a playlist.

Problem encountered only in playlist.
Sometimes, when pressing "play" button or even double clicking on a track,
won't start the track shown as selected but it starts a track even from another
playlist. I will check this better but it seems that the track started is the last one
played in the previous "session" of Foobar. I say session but in fact I never shut FB down
so it's always on. Many times it seems to happen when I go and use FB after some time
nothing has been played.

It happens regularly on two PCs with two similar FB installations and configs.
One on Seven and the other one on XP.

If you have any other hint that would help to find the culprit I'll be glad
to do some testing.

From now on I will try to pay attention to the actions taken right before this happens
so to be able to write them down.

Thanks.
