Comment(by stippi):

 If you restart Tracker (open a Terminal, type '''hey Tracker quit''', type
 '''/system/Tracker &'''), does the replicant suddenly work? If so it
 sounds like the timing between launching Tracker and media_server during
 boot could be the problem. Then you just need to add "polling" to the
 replicant. In another words, it would recheck the availability of the
 BMediaRoster from time to time until it is there. You could do this for
 example with a BMessageRunner that sends a message about every 2 seconds
 which causes the replicant to re-run the code that connects to the
 media_server.
