Greetings....I'm running DSL 2 with alsa but simply cannot get xmms to play an audio cd!  I can eject the CD (eject /dev/scd0) so the drive is detected at bootup.

Summary of what I've done
1) install DSL 2 to HDD
2) upgraded to gnu-utils
3) download alsa.dsl and install
4) run alsa setup (alsaconf)
5) load audio CD
6) start xmms
7) specify /dev/scd0 as directory in xmms and hit the play button but nothing happens.

What am I doing wrong?  TIA...

Try the xmms-cdread.dsl in the testing repository.

http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub....testing

It will read the cd as data to play it back. This is useful if there is no audio cable hooked up to your cdrom drive.
