Hi,

What's likely happening here is related to sorting.  If your playlist is set to 
be sorted by some other parameter, such as Artist or Song Title, then dragging 
and dropping will not be permitted.  Therefore, you must first sort things in 
the playlist by the Status column by pressing VO-shift-back slash, navigating 
to the Status column header, then press VO-space.  Press VO-shift-back slash to 
take focus back out of the Header area.  Now that items in the playlist are 
sorted by the Status column, you are able to custom sort items in the order you 
wish by using the old Drag & Drop method.  That is, navigate to the song you 
wish to move, press VO-cmd-f5 to ensure that VO and mouse focus are synced, 
press VO-cmd-shift-space which announces "Mouse Down".  Navigate to your 
desired location for dropping, press VO-cmd-f5 to sync focus again, then 
VO-cmd-shift-space to drop it.  I can't recall whether it drops before or 
after, or if that depends on whether you're navigating up or down, so you may 
need to experiment some.  It does work though.

Later...
