Would others agree that you can sound from a CD without a sound cable?
Sure. In XMMS, for example, go to preferences -> Audio I/O
plugins and press the configure button for the CD Audio
Player plugin. Put in the device [for me, /dev/cdrom] and
directory [/media/cdrecorder] and select Digital audio
extraction under play mode.

Something wrong here. In my experience audio CDs are not mounted
under /media as data CD's are. In fact the mounted CD does not even show
up in the list produced by the mount command. But the disk icon is still
on the desktop,
I guess this is just an XMMS kludge, because it doesn't seem
to have the ability to play audio CD's without mounting
them. Totem-xine plays them without mounting. I haven't
had an audio cable from my CD player to the sound card in years.
