Hi Colleen,

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

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