Why is it that, when I insert an audio disk, I see it as an audio disk

Which part of "Fedora does not support proprietary formats" do you not
understand? If you want .wav support, you need to add codecs from a
non-Fedora repo. I apologize if you did this and it didn't work, but you
don't say so.

I can read the CD, so the codecs are installed.

What I explained is that the way to get the CD playing is far, very far,
from as obvious as if you were using a Mac or Windows.

User friendlyness is N-I-L.

What you're missing is that the codecs are required for the player to load and play the media. The codecs are not required to read the contents of the CD.

A wonderful 3rd party repo is rpmfusion.org. They provide many wonderful tools and options to make your desktop linux experience much more enjoyable...
