CD Audio needs Main and CD turned up. -- Shawn D'Alimonte [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'm using built in scsi-emulation on /dev/sr0. JUST wondering did you connect the audio cable on the CD writer to the soundcard? You can try connecting your headphones to the headphone jack on the writer's front panel (if it has one). Otherwise bring out your screw driver. Or you can try extracting the audio data using cdparanaoia, and then play the resulting wav file(s). It may also possible to pipe cdparanoia's output to a stream-capable wav player (though I haven't tried this myself).
