If you are using alsa sound, you might need to remove the mute from the
cdrom. For that do:

$ alsamixer
# alsactl store

Go to Options > Preferences and see if you have the wav player in plugins.

Okay, you have to point XMMS to the CD file. Assuming you have user
permissions set correctly for accessing the CD. (Should have mentioned this
before.)

bash-2.05b$ ls -l cdr*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2004-07-03 20:22 cdrom -> hdc

But if I point to /mnt/Dvd I don't see nothing.

This '->' means this entry is a link. Links always(?) have
full permissions. The thing the link points to ( 'hdc' in
this case) may *not* have full permissions. What permissions
have you set on /dev/hdc?

Er, No. You don't mount an audio CD disk, you use the raw
devices: like /dev/hdc or maybe /dev/sr0.

You mount data disks on the filesystem at places like /mnt/Dvd.

bash-2.05b# ls -l hd*
brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 3, 0 2004-07-04 14:57 hda
brw-rw-r-- 1 root cdrom 22, 0 2004-07-04 14:57 hdc

Ok, but now how to play cd? I tried to play file pointing to /dev/hdc but
nothing to do. Sigh
