Did you make sure that /dev/audio was compiled into the kernel.I had this
problem as well and Everything appeared to be working, but it wasn't until I
compiled in /dev/audio support that I got it working.
The cdrom needs /dev/audio to know where to direct its sound output.
Check out my linux page if you need to know the exact steps I performed in
getting this working @ http://www.ResearchTriangle/9797/GuruBonz/linux.html
