Here is the ouput you asked for. However, I'm not sure if this is the problem. The problem is that xmms and cdparanoia do not see any audio cds in the drive. I have tried all the different plugin configurations for xmms, different command line options for cd paranoia and none work. CD paranoia identifies my drive correctly and then says something like 'are you sure there is an audio CD in the drive?'. Quite sure.....
I had a cube once and the drive was unable to handle audio CDs. olh@cherry:~ > cat /proc/ide/hdb/model MATSHITADVD-ROM SR-8186
Anyway, you know better than I do about all of this. Always interested in what you think.
You are proably out of luck.
send cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info
Card config: PowerMac [Screamer] (Dev 11) Sub-frame 0
Remind me again: the only problem you have with alsa/dmasound is the audio CD?

For example, I got it today when I came back from work and touched the mouse. The monitor 'woke up' and I got a lot of buzzing that went away once I ran alsaconfig and opened and closed alsamixer a few times. It changes in pitch when I click my mouse on lighter or darker windows or change virtual desktops. Very odd. It first happened when I upgraded to KDE 2.1.1 but I run enlightenment on it's own most of the time and it still happens occasionally. thanks Joss -- http://www.josswinn.org/humour.html
