Don't remember if you were asked this but when you push play on you
cdrom drive, do you get sound then?  If not the the issue is with
a) The sound's input is physically broken and/or
b) The sound card's mixer is not acting right.
This has nothing to to with artsd or esd unless kde's cd player is doing
digital extraction which is what winBLOWS was doing (by default).
