Re: CD audio

[Rory O'Connor <midget@elaris.com>]

I've eliminated the possibility that this is a hardware problem.  I 
switched out the CD-ROM and the audio cable from a computer I know they 
worked fine on.  The light is flashing when the CD is playing, and I can 
hear sound thru headphones.

I can play the CD with xmms and gtcd...just no sound.  mp3s play on xmms 
just fine.  i'm totally stumped.  anyone had this problem?

thanks,

rory
