Hi Chuck. I've got a SoundBlaster Live that I've used in 3 different comps
now, with version 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2 and finally 9.0... All comps
and versions have allowed me to play CD audio. I used a 4 connector audio
cable (not SPDIF) and its never failed. Thats hardware.
Once in software, I had to make a link between my devices.
ln -s /dev/cdrom /dev/hdc
Otherwise, it would not play. (if you have to do this, check dmesg and make
sure what your CDROM is listed as). You might have to play around with it a
bit...
HTH's! :-)
