Hi,
Quicktime will play your audio cd's as well as Real Player. Are you
sure you have an actual audio cable connected to the drive (did you
ever upgrade or swap it?)? What version of X are you running? If you
go into your preferences under 'CDs & DVDs', you can set the default
application to launch when inserting media. Also check the 'sound'
panel for the correct output device.

Hi all
Still having a voyage of discovery with X over here ;-) I tried to
play an audio CD, a store bought one which works on other players,
and when any program, such as iTunes or Audion X, tries to play the
disc, the little speaker icon just goes down the list of songs one
after the other and doesn't play any of them. Even if you select a
certain song, no go. It just scrolls down the list, no sound comes out.
..And the saga continues. I didn't change anything, but after a power
failure forced a reboot, I now notice that iTunes tries to play the disc
properly. That is, the speaker icon stops in front of the song and its
time remaining etc. is displayed in the title bar at the top. However
there's no sound. I checked the sound preferences program, it only
allows 'built in audio device' as the input or output. Other sound
works fine on this computer. Is there some other place I'm not
looking? iTunes doesn't handle prefs for the player itself, and the
CD/DVD prefs is only (or seems to be) about what to do with various
media when its inserted. Any more ideas?
Oh, lest I forget, thanks for the help so far!
