Switch cables L to R to determine if it is in fact the cable. Could be the female RCA on the player.
My tuner has an RCA that does the same thing. That's the downside to the Audioquest cables with the battery pack hanging off them. My solution is to place a small block of wood (a Cardas cable block) under the end of the cable to keep it more horizontal.
I suspect its the way the female RCA is mounted. If the receiving contact is bottom-oriented, the male hot pin will tend to bend away from it.
The RCA really is an elderly, miserable cheap connector - not withstanding the efforts of WBT and a few others - equaled only in microscopic metal-to-metal contact surface area by F-connectors...
