Is yours a video iPod? That appears to be an issue with a video iPod (from one of the other PAL threads):

XM not available on start-up: Customers with video iPods may occasionally experience the radio starting up in AM or FM band when the radio had been in iPod mode prior to shutting off the vehicle. They may or may not see "XM not available" appear briefly on the display before the transition to AM or FM. To avoid this situation, the iPod should be connected only AFTER the ignition is started.
