[SOLVED] Openbox Autostarting only some programs

Question

Ok, so I've tried searching the forums and either cannot find the one that answers my question or it doesn't exist.  Either way, I have my openbox autostart script set up like this:
xcompmgr &
nitrogen --restore &
yakuake &
cairo-dock &
The file is saved as ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh Only cairo dock and yakuake start up at the start of the openbox session.  The cairo dock has the black box around it from xcompmgr not being run but then if i manually start it in a terminal with "xcompmgr" then it goes away like it should.  So xcompmgr won't autostart and nitrogen won't restore either.  Nitrogen works if I manually do it after the openbox session has begun but only stays while i'm logged in, no restoring upon next login.  I'm trying to figure out if I have some syntax wrong?  I've tried separating the xcompmgr as far away from the cairo dock to give it more time to load but nothing...any help would be very appreciated.
other info: I have no DE, just the dock, openbox and nitrogen for my desktop.

Yakuake is already running, opening window....
