I can't play audio cds.  I used to use gnome-cd, but that seems to be
gone now, and none of the other CD players will play sound.  KsCD will
even show the track titles on the CD, but it won't play sound.  I
checked the log file, but I couldn't find anything.  I couldn't mount my
CD (in the past this wasn't necessary for audio CDs, but I thought I'd
try it anyway), and then I got something in the log.  My /dev/cdrom is a
link to /dev/hda:

camille ~ # grep /dev/hda /var/log/messages
Oct  6 11:41:41 camille GFS2: Unrecognized block device or mount
point /dev/hda
Oct  6 11:42:13 camille GFS2: Unrecognized block device or mount
point /dev/hda
Oct  6 11:42:35 camille GFS2: Unrecognized block device or mount
point /dev/hda

camille ~ # ls -l /dev/hda
brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 3, 0 Oct  6 07:06 /dev/hda

and I am in the cdrom group:

camille ~ # grep cdrom /etc/group
cdrom:x:19:michael,haldaemon

and the audio group:

camille ~ # grep audio /etc/group
audio:x:18:amy,michael,mythtv

I rebooted into Windows XP, where the same CD played just fine.  Can
anyone tell me what's going on with this?
