 Shouldn't it say it is audio CD medium?

I think that will depend on your USE flags.  You may want to post that. 
It may be some sort of plugin too.

On mine, it pops up like yours does then when I click on 'open in a new
window', it pops up the contents.  I can then copy them to the hard
drive or whatever.  This is done in Konqueror by the way.  I'm not sure
what you are trying to use.

Hope that helps or helps you get help.

I want to use K3B only if it is an audio CD.
I think my USE flags are different than when I compiled KDE.

Hope that helps or helps you get help.

I don't think it has anything to do with USE flags. It can be difficult to 
detect the type of a CD as not all of them follow the red book audio 
standard. Some may be 'enhanced' CDs that include videos and images on a data 
track, they will show up as a plain data cd. I think some copy protection 
methods can make a CD deviate enough from the standard to make it look like 
something else.

Although regardless of what KDE thinks, the CD should still work perfectly 
fine when played.

Thanks for the explanation.
Yep, it works fine.
