Exporting a file to use on CD player

I have used Audacity many time in exporting a wav file so as I can make a CD for use on a standard CD player, but recently when trying to record the CD, I can't use it on a regular CD player. It will work on the computer, so it does record. I noticed the files are PCM files. I don't know about PCM files. I have done somethng different. I hope some one can help me.

You have made a "Data CD" instead of an "Audio CD".
You need to set your CD burning program to make an "audio CD".
