Disklavier problem

Several things you can check, but the first thing I'd check is the 
disk.  Is it a Yamaha disk?  The Disklavier system won't play 3rd party 
software as far as I know.
I've had clients have similar problems, only to find out they never 
tried to see if it would play other disks - so what appeared to be a 
hardware problem eventually turned out to be a software compatibility issue.
