no sound from gnome cd player or grip

[Jann Röder]

I think this might be because grip or whatever tries to use an analog 
audio cable for music from the cd-drive. In later mac models apple did 
not use such a cable anymore. So you have to swicth to digital audio cd 
playback. Though I don't know how to do this. Ripping is always using 
digital audio extraction (i.e. read the data from the cd through the ide 
cable)
