You may use the following kind of command

        texmacs -x "(begin (lazy-plugin-force) (make-session \"maxima\" 
\"default\"))"

The point is that TeXmacs boots is a lazy fashion, so you should always
make sure that the needed functionality is already present.
In the case of plug-ins, this can be done using (lazy-plugin-force),
or, more specifically, using (lazy-plugin-initialize "maxima").
