About two weeks ago, immediately after an upgrade, I lost the use of my
CD/DVD player on RhythmBox i.e. RhythmBox could no longer find the
drive, although mplayer continued to work.  The Radio on RhythmBox
continued to produce sound.

I filed this bug but got no response.

I have never been able to get sound with tvtime.

I filed this bug but no solution reached.

I have had several discussions and various solutions suggested but
nothing worked.  See this post.
