One thing to check on the applications that play the CD, but do not
produce sound is how they are set up to get sound from the CD. I
have found that a lot of programs still default to using the analog
line from the CD to the sound card, yet most new machines do not
have this cable, so you need to reconfigure them to use digital
sound over the interface. You then end up suing the PCM  mixer
control instead of the CD control to control volume...
