It sounds like you might not have recompiled xmcd.  cda comes with xmcd.
Also, make sure camcontrol works.  Try this:

camcontrol devlist
camcontrol tur cd0 -v

Also, make sure you've made the pass devices.  To make 5 pass devices:

cd /dev
sh MAKEDEV pass5

We switched SCSI layers in 3.0, so any application that did SCSI
pass-through in 2.x won't work in 3.x.

If you want to see if CDDA works with your CDROM drive, try compiling and
installing tosha (from ports/audio) and cdrecord (from ports/sysutils),
which includes cdda2wav.
