Hello,

My name is Rich and I am unable to play audio cd's on my atapi 
cd-rom drive. This is my dmesg output for it:

wdc0: unit 1 (atapi): <MATSHITA CR-574/1.06>, removable, accel, iordis
wcd0: 689Kb/sec, 211Kb cache, audio play, 256 volume levels, ejectable tray
wcd0: medium type unknown, unlocked 

and then sound:

sb0 at 0x220 irq 10 drq 1 on isa 
sb0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.13> 
sbmidi0 at 0x330 on isa
 <SoundBlaster MPU-401> 
sbxvi0 at 0x0 drq 5 on isa
sbxvi0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.13>

I have made the appropraite device nodes
sh MAKEDEV wcd0
sh MAKEDEV snd0
I know that the sound works because I am able to play MP3's.
The cd-rom was tested on a win95 machine and it plays cd-audio.
I have tried several cd's and it's the same, it says that I do
not have a cd-rom in my drive.
I have tried cdcontrol, cdplay, xmcd, xcdplayer and workman
and none of them worked.
When trying 'cdcontrol -f /dev/rwcd0a'
and then play 1 the cd-rom flashes for 2secs or so and then stops
flashing and spinning. I have FreeBSD 2.2.2 CD and was able to 
do a CD-ROM installation @ about 300kb/sec no problem, it's just audio
that does not work.

P.S.: Any Help/Suggestions will be greatly appriciated..

Thank You,
Rich
