I've forwarded that upstream:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=380124

** Summary changed:

- Gnome-CD segfaults, insists on trying to access nonexistent /dev/hdd
+ changing theme when gnome-cd interface is not displayed makes it crash

** Description changed:

- When I go to play an audio CD, gnome-cd brings up a dialog:
+ * change /apps/gnome-cd/device to a device which is not a CD drive
+ * start gnome-cd
+ * click on "Set device"
+ * pick a theme
  
- The CD player is unable to run correctly.
- 
- Press 'Details' for more details on reasons for the failure.
- 
- Press 'Set device' to go to a dialog where you can set the device, or
- press 'Quit' to quit the CD player.
- 
- Pressing 'Set device' takes me to a dialog with only one choice, my
- combination CD/DVD drive (on /dev/hdc). Selecting that device has no
- effect. Attempting to set a theme segfaults the player. (The theme
- selected exists on the machine.) Attempting to set the device manually
- by editing $HOME/.gconf/apps/gnome-cd/%gconf.xml has no effect; gnome-cd
- still insists on looking for the CD player at /dev/hdd. I was unable to
- find where gnome-cd was getting this default from through strace.
- 
- It seems like it would make more sense to have whatever default gnome-cd
- is trying to read point to a symbolic link (e.g. /dev/cdrom) instead of
- a hard-coded path (e.g. /dev/hdd).
+ gnome-cd crashes then
