    Dolphin not recognising audio CD when inserted into drive

    Hi there
    Haven't really listened to anything on my desktop PC for a very long time but noticed a problem recently in that when I insert a CD into one of my 2 DVD drives, Dolphin appears to have a problem reading the media and listing the tracks
    It does the same for DVDs as well and I have found if I mount the drive by going to root then media and then clicking on the drive folder, that I can play the DVD
    But when I try that same approach for an ausio CD, nothing happens
    I'm guessing there is something wrong in the way those drives are configured and I have pasted some output below for info:

    "df" command:
    Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
    /dev/sda1 28288680 11764756 15086912 44% /
    udev 1030920 304 1030616 1% /dev
    none 1030920 12 1030908 1% /dev/shm
    none 1030920 212 1030708 1% /var/run

    fstab file:
    # /etc/fstab: static file system information.
    #
    # Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
    # for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name
    # devices that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).

    /dev/sr1 /media/cdrom1 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0
    /dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0
    /dev/sdb1 /media/Archive ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 0


    Hope this is helpful

    Thanks in advance

    Cheers

    It's apparently not uncommon to have such a problem on a system with 2 drives, maybe this thread helps:

      Re: Dolphin not recognising audio CD when inserted into drive

      Hi Thanks for this
      Tried System settings but it made no difference
      I have an older PC and all the drives are IDE
      Funny thing is I was running Gnome last year and didn't notice any issues with that and I haven't made any hardware changes since then....all very puzzling!

        Won't hurt anything, and can always be undone, so...

        Edit your fstab file and comment the two entries for your two optical drives. Save and then reboot your PC. When you have the desktop up, insert an audio CD and see if it isn't properly 'seen' and mounted.
