I see... Were you able to mount the cdrom device ok with the music CD? I just popped in a music cd into my dvdrom and couldn't mount it like this: mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom when logged in as root. On my red hat 7.3 machine, the kernel associates /dev/cdrom to my dvdrom device. Like you said before, I am also able to install programs/etc using normal cd-rom's in that dvdrom drive on my machine. Its funny though how kscd starts up automatically when the music cd is popped into my dvdrom drive. It also has the right time of all the music on that cd in the display window. I just can't hear anything like you said. Like I mentioned above, it doesn't seem like the device is mounted with the music cd in there since I can hit the eject button on my dvd-rom and it pops open. I can't do this if a cd has previously been mounted in that drive. Sorry that I can't help you :-( ~~Nick Sound works fine.
