Hi, I can't seem to get my computer to play or should I say mount my audio cds. I have created a cdrom icon on my KDE desktop and when I click on it so that it automatically mounts it says..."Could not mount

So I went to the terminal and switched to root and tried both mount /mnt/cdrom and mount /dev/cdrom and it said, respectively "mount: /dev/cdrom is not a block device". Anyone have any ideas? I was able to get my audio CDs to work when I initally installed Fedora then I started messing around with trying to get my cd burner to work and now I can't play audio cds.
Usually the cd burner is actually /dev/scd0 .. /dev/cdrom is a link to that.
If you installed the burner after having a regular cdrom in the machine /dev/cdrom may be a link to /dev/hdX and thus won't work to mount/play audio.
Check that out.
