We (on the kubuntu-users list) tracked down the root of the problem. The kaffeine-xine engine is, by default, correctly configured to expect the audio & video devices to be /dev/cdrom and /dev/dvd, respectively.
udev has two rulesets that are relevant: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/75-cd-aliases-generator.rules The latter generates the former - but it never replaces rules, just adds new ones. When optical drives change from being handled by the IDE subsystem to SCSI, the PCI path names change (e.g.pci-0000:00:09.0-ide-1:0 becomes pci-0000:00:09.0-scsi-0:0:1:0) and /dev/dvd is no longer a valid symlink to the physical device. The best workaround, imo, is to simply delete /etc/udev/rules.d/70 -persistent-cd.rules and reboot - a new file will be generated with /dev/cdrom and /dev/dvd (and their r/w equivalents) pointing to the correct device. -- Can't mount DVD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/230670 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
