Amarok is the audio gebneral purpose aplication for kde (if I understand well).
It's pretty buggy

kde bugzilla: https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=specific&order=relevance+desc&bug_status=__open__&product=&content=amarok
I just fall in this trying to make it play audio cd's (as it's one of the two apps that are listed by default when an audio cd is inserted).
Amarok do *not* open audio cd's, nor in 11.4 nor in Factory 12.
is it usefull or dumb to try to fix amarok? (I don't know how well amarok is maintained upstream)
thanks jdd NB: the audio cd read do not needs packman, so this should be bare openSUSE The device notifier gives the option to "Play audio cd with Amarok" but it doesn't work, it starts amarok but doesn't play however kaffeine does play. Definitely a bug in amarok, you should take this to the kde list. I'm sending a cc there.

Why talk to the opensuse-kde list if it's an upstream Amarok bug? Audio CD support appears completely non-working for me with Amarok 2.4.1 too. Audio CDs appear in the local collection _only_ if Amarok is started before the CD is inserted, and even if the CD tracks do appear I seem unable to play them. I wonder if such basic functionality could really be so broken across multiple Amarok releases, or if it's somehow an issue with openSUSE packaging. Would be nice to know if it's broken on other distributions too. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org

Then we start with a Novell bug and I'll look upstream for the problem. The other work around suggestion seems to be a clue to the problem. Jdd can report the bug and cc me.

Workaround: right-click the device notifier, -> device actions select "Audio CD with Amarok" Edit it to something else -- Irrationally held truths may be more harmful than reasoned errors. Thomas H.
