Try adding 'entry="root"' to the pgc for the first menu.
Then 'call menu entry root' in the code.  I think you can only jump to 
menus by 'entry' from a title, while jumps between menus are more flexible.

I've successfully used something like:

----8<----
<dvdauthor jumppad="no"><vmgm><fpc>{
   g1 = 1; g2 = 1; g3 = 0; jump titleset 1 menu entry root;
}</fpc></vmgm>
<titleset><!-- titleset 1 -->
<menus>
<pgc pause="0"><!-- menu 1 -->
   ...[menu contents]...
</pgc>
...[more menus]...
<pgc pause="0" entry="root"><!-- menu root -->
<pre>{
   if (g1 eq 1) { jump title 1; } else { jump menu 81; }
}</pre>
<vob file="blank.mpeg" />
</pgc><!-- menu root -->
</menus><titles>
<pgc><!-- title 1 -->
<pre>{ g1 = 0; }</pre>
<vob file="intro.mpeg" />
<post>{ call menu entry root; }</post>
</pgc><!-- title 1 -->
</titles>
</titleset><!-- titleset 1 -->
</dvdauthor>
----8<----


Hope this helps,
