Hey all,

I posted a question a couple of days ago about problems I was having with
SuSe 8.1 recognising CD Drives properly.... I'd like to say thanks to all
those who posted answers as things are now working much more like they
should, but I still have one tiny problem - I can't play Audio CD's.

I have the two drives - a DVD (/dev/hdc mapped to /media/cdrom & /media/dvd)
and a CD Rewriter (/dev/sr0 mapped to /media/cdrecorder). Mounting DVD's and
normal CD's in the DVD drive works fine and burning CD's with the CD
rewriter also works fine but I can't get programs like XMMS to play audio
CD's inserted in the DVD drive.

I do have an audio cable running internally from the DVD drive to my sound
card and I have made sure sound isn't muted anywhere... I have also made
sure I have the correct permissions to play stuff but alas I cannot get this
working!!!!!!!

I know you can't mount audio cd's, but how do I get programs like XMMS to
play audio CD's???????? Playing location "audiocd:/" doesn't seem to work
nor does "/media/cdrom" or "/media/dvd".....

Any suggestions?

Gary.
