There are three things you need to try:
1. run: alamixer and be sure the CD channels have a high enough output.
They seem to default to 0.
2, Go to RedHat-> Sound and Video -> Volume control.
3. If gnome-cd (which I find flaky in FC) still does not p0lay the CD
I would try grip. If that works you make that the default by going to
Preferences -> CD properties.
Or be a little more specific about what happens when you try to play
the CD.

My geometry teacher was sometimes acute, and sometimes obtuse, but always,
always, he was right.
[That's an interesting angle. I wonder if there are any parallels?]
