Willie, Don't know if this helps, but I get that screen when no cd is loaded 
in the drive. When I put one in, it comes up.

If you go into system Settings --> Advanced there is an icon for "Audio CDs', 
where you can configure the Audio CDs, including which device (mine is 
/dev/cdrom).

HTH,

Glenn
