No sound from CD player - AMD64 8.0 RELEASE

Problem:

I followed the instructions on setting up the sound card for my IBM T60 and it seems like the sound card is working (startup/showdown music from KDE). However, when I tried to do play my CD, I didn't hear any music (cdcontrol -f /dev/acd01 play 1).

I tried a difference CD to rule out an issue with the CD. Also, I tried changing hw.snd.default_unit from 0 to 1 but didn't make any difference.

From kldstat:

Code: 
snd_hda.ko
sound.ko

snd_hda doesn't yet supports analog input monitoring (listening sound coming from inputs, such as CD) on this codec. If your codec configuration exposes CD input to the driver, you may be able to record from it. But for listening CDs you'll have to use digital audio extraction.
 
Ah, perfect! Thanks.

After I posted the message, I did try to rip the tracks using cdparanoia and lame and the sound came through perfectly.
