When I added sound to my system a few months ago I had many of the same problems that you seem to be having. Some CD players would not install, others would install and config, but then gave errors when I tried to run them. I don't remember, now, which programs gave which problems. The only program which workesd correctly, for me, right from the start was gcd and that is the one that I am still using. I am listening to a CD in the background even as I type this response. The program may not have a lot of bells and whistles, but it does what I need it to do, which is play CDs.
