      I'd like some help/suggestions for filing a bug report about this (not too familiar with the procedure). What project should I pick, kdemultimedia?

        Ok, I think I got it figured out (somewhat).

        system settings-hardware-multimedia-audio cd's.

        "specify cd device. ..change the /dev/cdrom to /dev/sr0 if you only have one cd/dvd drive. if you have more then one just specify which one you want to use for audio cd playback.

        /dev/sr0..../dev/sr1 and so on.

        I got kscd working, and it is now showing up in Asunder. I have removed Amarok so I can't say anything about that.
        Still not showing up in Dolphin

          Also got it working in VLC.
          On the menu bar.
          Media-open disk
          check "audio cd"
          "disk device"..enter your cd drive. /dev/sr0

            Weird... because /dev/cdrom is just a link to /dev/sr0 here. Anyway, kscd works now, although it segfaults immediately if no CD is inserted. I hadn't tried VLC before but it works, too. And it was always working in some other not-so-KDE-integrated applications (Asunder, Sound-Juicer, even k3B and soundKonverter).

            The main issue I had and still have is with Device Notifier and Dolphin not quite knowing what to do with audio CDs. They do seem to "find" the discs, they just don't get anything useful out of them (CDDB-wise, audio-track-wise, etc.)

              Still the same here.
