How were you trying to play music (presumably CDs) before? The K CD
player (kscd)? If so there is/was a problem with it if you weren't
using the matcd0 driver (the old Panasonic/Matshushita proprietry
interface, from the days of 2x drives). Try symlinking /dev/cdrom ->
/dev/your_CD_device, and/or adding the following to
~/.kde/share/config/kscdrc:

[General]
CDDevice=/dev/cd0c

substituting your CD device for cd0c.
