You might try playing a simple wav file (the splay port will do that for you) to check the sound card. Next, does your dmesg indicate that you've got a matcd cd player? If not, then Kscd is trying to use the wrong cd player; you'll have to reconfigure Kscd to use the correct device. http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
