JUST wondering did you connect the audio cable on the CD writer to
the soundcard? You can try connecting your headphones to the
headphone jack on the writer's front panel (if it has one). Otherwise
bring out your screw driver. Or you can try extracting the audio data
using cdparanaoia, and then play the resulting wav file(s). It may
also possible to pipe cdparanoia's output to a stream-capable wav
player (though I haven't tried this myself).
