Did you also try to play a music file (eg. ogg, mp3, wav)? On (some?)
newer models the audio output of the CD-ROM drive is not connected to
the sound chip. With these models you can't usually directly play a
Audio CD-ROM. There is a plugin/setting for vlc which makes it work,
but i forgot how you have to configure it and I'm currently away from
my powerpc machine.
