My TOD dock had no power hence no eject.

Ejecting on startup sounds like the Duo was booted outside the dock, 
slept and inserted in the dock.  In that case it ejects when you try 
to start.  Why it does it on the second try, I don't know.  I don't 
suppose you have a second Duo you can test it with (doesn't everyone)?
