That should be /dev/acd0 or /dev/cd0, not /dev/cd0a.

Check that CD devices are actually there, with "ls /dev/*cd*". On my
system this returns: "/dev/cd0 /dev/cd1" but that's because I use SCSI
emulation. A system with a GENERIC kernel would probably show /dev/acd0.

Playing music is very different from mounting, so that's perfectly normal.
