Check your sub-code:
Does the audio player show the correct track numbers, assuming you just let 
it play through?  Displayed track numbers come from the Q subcode embedded 
with the music.  If you always see 1, all tracks were coded that way, and 
will confuse the audio players which use the subcode to verify where they 
are.  

If you can actually select other tracks on the computer or audio players, 
this means the Table of Contents contains multiple tracks, and this is 
really a bad disc.  DAO mode is very powerful, but lets you do 
self-inconsistent things.  If the Table of Contents shows only one track, 
you have somehow combined all of your audio into one track before burning, 
but produced a proper disc.

Players can tolerate zero second pre-gaps (the "space" between tracks) and 
usually even audio within the pre-gap.
