You have to use 'Play Directory' and specify the mountpoint of your cdrom (unmounted).

Make sure that you have read and write permissions to the cdrom device (on my system it's /dev/cdroms/cdrom0). Should work if you add your user to the cdrom group.

Upon reading this thread I realised it was something to do. But what fs do audio cds use? The isoXXXX that came with my fstab seems to sit poorly with 'mount'
