CD changer will not mix discs randomly
I figured out how to get my cda-9856 unit to play the tracks on one disc of the six disc changer at random. The instruction manual indicates there is a way to get the changer to randomly select from each of the discs in the changer, rather than limit it to just random selections from a single disc. I have not been able to enable the random selection.
