Default Can't hear CDRom

I am now trying to use KsCD. It gets the track listing and will play
without error, but I get no sound. When I installed Fedora 3, it
tested and found my sound card, but it appears there is something else
wrong. Or is there? Any help would be appreciated.

Do you have the sound cable that connect the CD with the sound card?
Without that link you won't get any sound out of the CD.

Is there a wire from the cdrom drive to the sound card?

Also be sure to check your volume control -input- settings (possibly in
KMix). Your CD may be muted, or simply turned way down.

KsCD requires that you have that cable that goes from your
CDROM drive to your sound board. It doesn't interpret direct
data like other players do.
