No Sound from the CD-ROM Drive

If you are having problems with sound when playing a CD:
• Check that the volume control (if present) on the CD-ROM drive front
panel is not set to the minimum.
• Ensure that the disk in the drive is an audio disk and not a photo CD
or data CD.
• If using headphones or external speakers, check that they are
properly connected to the Audio Front Panel (not to the audio jack for
the CD-ROM).
• Check that the CD audio cable is correctly installed and is connected
to the system board.

The CD-ROM Drive is Idle

If the drive does not appear to be working, try mounting the disk using
the mount command.
