there can be two problems here ... either the cable that connects your
CD drive to the soundcard is missing ( this is used to play digital CD
audio on CD drives ) or your CD music channel is set to mute ( run gmix
)

if you can play your audio CDs in windows ... then the second option is
the most likely problem
