This text is from the audiocd-io source code:
"Unknown error. If you have a cd in the drive try running cdparanoia -vsQ as
yourself (not root). Do you see a track list? If not, make sure you have
permission to access the CD device. If you are using SCSI emulation (possible
if you have an IDE CD writer) then make sure you check that you have read and
write permissions on the generic SCSI device, which is probably /dev/sg0,
/dev/sg1, etc.. If it still does not work, try typing
audiocd:/?device=/dev/sg0 (or similar) to tell kio_audiocd which device your
CD-ROM is."
Maybe it helps.
