I haven't tried it in a few weeks, but last time I did, I only got white
noise (LE audio needed to be byteswapped/swabbed).  Has this changed?  If
not, then xmms-cdread is certainly broken since the code is just not there
to do the swabbing.

I haven't seen any of the above yet.  What do you mean by 'tendency to
skip'?  Skip how?  As for the random hangs, this may be caused by high
system loads and happens on just about all of my machines when I saturate
the bus...
