That's why they put it there - they don't want you to learn that the cheap SOBs left out the CD audio cable when they built the box. :) You might want to get your hands on the xmms-cdread plugin, which will read the CD digitally (like Wincrap OSes do); that will at least allow you to play audio CDs, even if the cable mystery is to be left unsolved. I'm not sure offhand if it's available precompiled for 8.2, but if it is, then once you've set up the "plf", "contrib", and update sources for urpmi properly, "urpmi xmms-cdread" should pull it in.
