audio cd on ultra 5

["Mark T. Valites" <valites@geneseo.edu>]

A while back I wrote about not being able to play sound at all.  After
some help from the list, I realized I had the wrong modules loaded & was
on my way.

Today I stuck in an audio cd for the first time & wasn't able to play it.
I exited out E & gnome & logged back in & got an error message about not
having permission to open /dev/mixer.  I can get the cd to start spinning
fine & the second counter to tick on fine in any cd playing app, but no
sound comes out.  No luck as root either.

Any suggestions on how I can start troubleshooting this?

Here's some info for what it's worth...
