If you have a great deal of patience, you may want to try this, as a user,
running in an xterm:
"strace [the program to play your cd here] 2>&1 > /tmp/cd-log"
The output from this is in /tmp/cd-log. If you parse it slowly it should
show you where "open"s are failing, and can lead to better insight on
where the problem lies.
Your dmesg doesn't show any abnormalities to me.
You may want to see what /var/log/messages reports too.
