Hello, Matthew
In VLC, locate the "Default optical device" settings following these
menus:
"Tools | Preferences | Show Settings (Simple) |
Input / Codecs | Optical drive | Default optical device"

I just changed "/dev/dvd1" to "/dev/sr0" and clicked "Save" to see if it
works.  So, I put a dvd in the drive and did the following from the
main GUI in VLC:
"Devices | Discs"

The DVD started playing perfectly.

If this is not what you wanted, I do apoplogize.
