Well, this seems to be a problem with kscd 1.3.2. Started fresh this
morning and went directly to gtcd and was able to play a cd. xplaycd also
worked fine. I tried kscd again and nothing. Not only that, but after
opening kscd gtcd would not work (xplaycd either). I had tried the other
players before, but I guess only after trying kscd. I had to shutdown to get
it to work again.
