When I try to play a CD on Sound Juicer I get
the message:
Error playing CD.
Reason: Resource not found
and this is followed by the message:
Error playing CD.
Reason: GStreamer error: state change
failed and some element failed to post
a proper error message with the reason
for the failure.

What should I do?
