try using xmms-cdread, you can open directly the cdrom device with it.

with both libcdread and libcdaudio you can choose whether to read data and
play them (read cd data/digital audio extraction), or play cd audio directly
(analog, via cdrom-soundcard cable). IF one does not work, try using the
other one...

I've noticed this behaviour in XMMS. I used to add /dev/cdrom to the
playlist but I've found out that you need to add the mountpoint instead
(/cdrom or /media/cdrom) in recent versions.

This is actually being reported by other users [1] yet I couldn't get
into the Bugzilla as of June 19th., 1845 UTC. I browsed the README [2]
however and I found out that the author of the CD Audio Player module
says that you need to add the mountpoint to the playlist, as you defined
it in the preferences.

 As of the last update or two ago (etch), XMMS no longer plays CDs.
XMMS
 sends tons of messages like the following to the syslog if I click on
 the ^ button, enter /dev/cdrom, and click Play.

 I can use cdplay from the cdtool package to play the CDs.
 
 If I bring up Options  Preferences  Audio I/O Plugins, select CD
Audio
 Player, and click on Configure, and then click on Check drive in the
 subsequent dialog, I get:
 
   Device /dev/cdrom OK.
   Disc has 11 tracks
   Total length: 44:19
   Digital audio extraction test: OK
   Directory /cdrom/ OK.
 
 Should I be entering a new directory or file in the Play files dialog
 now? Something like
 /media/cdrom/something-or-other-which-doesn't-exist-at-the-moment?
 
 Any other ideas?
 
 Or is this a bug that needs to be reported? I didn't see anything like
 it listed already.

Try selecting Play location from the upper-left corner menu, or press
Crtl-L. The ^ button opens a Play file window. Also, mount the CD
first, and enter /mnt/cdrom or /media/cdrom instead of /dev/cdrom.

Thanks for the tip. Actually, I just stumbled across the solution. If I
enter /media/cdrom0 in the Play files dialog, XMMS only shows the
directories in /media. If, however, I *double-click* on cdrom0, *then*
Track 01.cda, etc. show up in the Files list (gee, that's obvious). Then
I can click on Add all files in directory and have the songs show up
in the playlist.

I'll check those bug reports and see if I have anything to add. Thanks
again for the feedback.
