Are you able to play any sounds at all? If not, you'll need to add yourself to the 'audio' group. I suspect that you may be running into permissions problems even if you can play other sounds: ensure that your drive /dev/hdc is owned by group cdrom and add yourself to that group as well. (Remember to log out and back in, and) everything should work after that.
