Oh, I see. I thought you couldn't hear the CD player whether or not you are docked. You can see your ACPI view of the device tree with: acpidump -d | grep Device You'll probably have a DCK (dock) device that has some sound device under it. We don't have much docking support currently but if you boot while docked, devices on it should work fine. I have patches for basic docking support but the problem is there are many device drivers that don't handle this properly yet. For instance, if you have a floppy drive bay in the dock, the fdc(4) driver doesn't know yet how to handle an undock event. We're just lucky that most laptops so far let the BIOS handle things. -- Nate
