Actually, this looks like a different problem.  My guess is that the 
/dev/cdrom is actually pointing to somewhere other than the actual cdrom that 
you are trying to use.  I've found that this happens frequently when my 
machines have cd-rw's.

Open your /etc/fstab and see which entry is the one for your cdrom.  You know:

/mnt/cdrom /mnt/cdrom supermount 
dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,ro,--,iocharset=iso8859-1 0 0

Either recreate the link to /dev/cdrom, or paw around in your cdplayer 
options until you find the "CDROM DEVICE"  box and change it to whatever your 
cdrom actually is (/dev/scd0 in the above example)

Worth a try!
