I try to play audio cd with cdcontrol but fail.

I compile multimedia/mplayer with libcdio option result with compiling errors in audio/cdparanoia.

I download the unofficial patch of audio/cdparanoia at PR 161760

After compiling mplayer successfully, I can play audio CD with mplayer following command.

$ mplayer -cdrom-device /dev/cd0 cdda://1-9

I try one more time with cdcontrol but fail again.

Only a noise can be heard if ripping is carried out.

Note: this thread is a year old.

AFAIR cdcontrol(1) exits after starting the CD. Your audio may just be going to the headphone jacks. It's also possible to run cdcontrol(1) interactively.

Use DAE

cdcontrol(1) plays via a CD drive's analog output which nowadays usually either isn't connected anywhere or doesn't exist at all. So you'll have better luck playing via DAE (Digital Audio Extraction), i.e. via the (S)ATA connection instead of analog output (or just rip the CD right away for example using audio/abcde or sysutils/k3b-kde4 and then play the ripped files.)

If you really want to play the CD instead of ripping it you can use multimedia/mplayer:

mplayer -cache 4096 -cdrom-device /dev/cd0 cdda://

but you'll have to build the mplayer port with the LIBCDIO option enabled. (You can also pass a track number after "cdda://".)

And if you want to do this as user instead of only as root you'll have to change permissions for /dev/xpt0 and the /dev/passX corresponding to cd0 (and possibly for /dev/cd0 itself too if you are not in the operator group), you can find passX by running:
# camcontrol devlist
see the pkg-message for sysutils/k3b-kde4 for example here: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/sysutils/k3b-kde4/pkg-message?revision=300897&view=markup.
