Acetyl chloride on reacting with KCN in ethanol will give ethyl acetate. If acetyl cyanide forms at all, it will immediately react with the ethanol solvent as it is a more reactive species than acetyl chloride.

Acetyl cyanide is known and may be formed by catalytic reaction of hydrogen cyanide and ketene at elevated temperature. Details.

Aromatic acyl cyanides are less reactive than alkyl acyl cyanides much as aromatic acyl chlorides are less reactive. They may be formed by reaction of the neat aromatic acyl chloride with cuprous cyanide (details) and are stable to a wash with cold aq. sodium bicarbonate.
