Hi Colleen, |

I didn't find it in this thread yet, but I am wondering if you have the |
| 27 |
CD-drive connected to the soundcard or not. |

Some applications will "rip" and play the cdda-tracks directly from the |
| 30 |
CD. Others will simply tell the CD-drive to play an audio-cd and have the |
| 31 |
cd-drive do the decoding. |
| 32 |
In the latter case, the audio-signal goes over a little cable from the |
| 33 |
cd-drive to the soundcard. |
