Andy,
Why do you have to NOT use ide-scsi when playing audio CDs? I have
not had a problem with that. Just about yesterday I
played/grabbed/encoded to oggvorbis 6 of my CDs all done with ide-scsi and I
haven't had to do anything funky to get it working except that I made
sure ide-cd would not get loaded ever (modutils). I'm using kernel 2.4,
and I am not aware of any differences between it and 2.2 in this regard.
Disclamer: I may be totally wrong. This works for me and you are allowed
to disregard this info, delete this message and bash me <silently>.
Here is my lsmod output:

And the relevant ide-scsi file from /etc/modutils:
=========================================================
options ide-cd ignore=hdd
alias cdrom ide-scsi
alias dvd ide-scsi
alias sr0 sr_mod
alias sr1 sr_mod
pre-install sg modprobe ide-scsi
pre-install sr_mod modprobe ide-scsi
=========================================================
Don't forget about update-modules
