Bug#406801: gnome-media: Gnome-cd does not play Audio CDs

[Jack Malmostoso]

Package: gnome-media
Version: 2.14.2-4
Severity: normal

Hello there,
gnome-cd (and any other gstreamer based applications) does not play any
audio cd.
When I insert an audio cd, gnome-cd comes up automagically and hangs. I am
forced to quit it with a kill -9. When started from a terminal window:

jack at nostromo:~$ gnome-cd

** (gnome-cd:8238): WARNING **: Error opening CD

** (gnome-cd:8238): WARNING **: ERROR: Could not open CD device for reading.

Similarily, Rhythmbox spits up a window that says "Rhythmbox couldn't access the CD".

Soundjuicer reads the tracklist of the cd, but upon playback says:"Error
reading CD. Reason: This CD has no audio tracks". Obviously, extracting the
tracks does not work, with the same error message.

At first I have thought of permission problems on my drives, but Audacious plays the CD just fine.

Thanks for any help you can give!
