You can get sound from .mp3's .ogg's and from the net etc., but not
from CD ?
If so, maybe you use a CD player like Noatun (the KCDplayer). That
one requires analog input. That means you'll have to check if
there is an audio cable from the device to the motherboard or
soundcard.
Other players like grip or xmms can use digital input and require no
audio cable. I don't think grip needs any additional software, but
xmms does. I think it is called xmms-cdread.
But first, try grip. If no go, report back.
