kscd doesn't have the read permission for /dev/dvd and therefore it
cannot start playing the audio CD via an ioctl call. "ls -lL /dev/dvd"
lists permissions and "id -a" lists details about the user.

The ownership of /dev/dvd (and thus access rights) may depend on who
uses KDE. Don't post information about permissions for the root user
- he can do anything no matter what the permissions are.

Anyway, I'm confused since according to your info a user can mount a
data CD in the dvd and cdrecorder but cannot play audio CDs there.
Either it's a "low level" problem or there is something inconsistent
with these statements.
