Sorry, looks like not implemented (jet?). Maybe its possible to add this option in the kscdrc-file? I have "DigitalPlayback=true" in the rc-file of KsCD in KDE 4.1.4. Enable "Analog playback" with "DigitalPlayback=false"? Martin Kho PS. KsCD in 4.1.4 you can find the option under Extra -> Configure KsCD.
