I had a machine at work with this symptom and it was the lack of audio connection cable from the CD drive to the sound card that was causing the problem.

I am new to Fedora, and I still didn't realize how
I use CD Player. I put a CD into the CD drive, Ipush
the 'play' button and nothing hapened.
Could anyone explain me how to use CD Player?
Do you see a cd icon appear on the screen, with the legend "Audio Disc"? If so, double click on it and all will become clear...

Hi All:
I do know that, right after putting a CD into the CD drive, automatically the CD Player screen appears on the screen. The problem is: when I push the PLAY button nothing happens. It seems like it is not possible to play a CD from the CD (drive), or the CD Player is ignoring the CD that is into the CD dive? I mean, with Fedora, all we need to do is to rippe the CD first? If that is the case, multimedia should be improved a lot on linux. Right now, all the time I want to listen to a CD (without to ripe it first), I need to move to Windows. Well, I would like to do that with Fedora, instead. Any new hint? Thanks! Hoffmann

You need to open up your machine and verify that this cable is in place. The only alternative is to find a CD player that will play them digitally. Something like mplayer or xmms, perhaps?
