The command called upon from the menu is "soundwrapper xmms" whereas what you're typing from the commandline is probably just "xmms". I don't know what soundwrapper does, but I imagine if you remove that from the menu entry using menudrake, it'll fix the problem.
This isn't a great solution. I would want to find out why soundwrapper isn't working properly, but in the meantime this solution won't hurt.
