You could use a ramped profile cut based on one edge of the pocket (slot?)
To work optimally a lot of CAM users utilise extracted and/or constructed geometry to generate the paths they need rather than purely relying on the solid model,

I had this problem with a scratchplate for an Ibanez guitar this weekend - the way I got it to work was to get rid of (untick) the Lead In and Lead Out options in the last tab on the toolpath dialogue.

Hope that helps.

Edit: Nearly forgot - set the Ramp option if you haven't already.

That sorted it. Thank you

No worries and glad it worked.

I think this "feature" was introduced in the last update or so, as I think it used to drop the lead in/out if there wasn't room for it.
