users using your program and thus being able to access the
sound / cdrom hardware should be in the cdrom+audio group
for themself

its not your programs task to gain access, it should
already be provided by the calling process.

you could print a message that the user should ask the
sysadmin to add them to these groups if your open-call
fails.
