Try re-emerging cddb-py, and running python-updater if you have upgraded at some point from 2.3 to 2.4.. Because it seems to be 'worksforme' case.

My exaile: media-sound/exaile-0.2.9-r1 USE="aac alsa cdparanoia flac gnome libnotify libsexy mad musepack ogg streamripper vorbis -ipod -oss -serpentine" Thanks
Also, it might be a gstreamer problem so please insert an audio cd and try this command from terminal: gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri="cdda://1" and music should start playing.
(In reply to comment #2) > The problem persists :-(, What USE flags are you using? Your USE flags are fine.

Additional debug info: gstcdparanoiasrc.c(246): gst_cd_paranoia_src_open (): /playbin0/source: cdda_open failed Setting pipeline to NULL ... FREEING pipeline ... The cdrom device is /dev/hdc Thanks
So it's a bug in your gstreamer installation, not exaile itself. Try rebuilding *all of gstreamer*, *including plugins* you have installed.
Also, i'd check for.. drac@unique ~/gentoo-x86/media-sound/exaile $ ls -l /dev/cdrom lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2007-04-21 18:16 /dev/cdrom -> hdc

Seems like for playbin to work, /dev/cdrom needs to be a symlink to correct device? drac@unique ~/gentoo-x86 $ sudo rm /dev/cdrom drac@unique ~/gentoo-x86 $ gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri="cdda://1" Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...

Changing the link to correct device fixed the problem Thanks a lot :-)

from #gstreamer, Freenode: 20:46 < thaytan> drac: there's no way via the uri at the moment 20:46 < thaytan> there's a bug open about it 20:46 < thaytan> I think you can connect to the notify::source signal on playbin and change the device property at the moment playbin creates the cddasrc element Anyway, passed this information also to Exaile upstream and discussed about it. So likely this is going to change one way or other in future gst and/or exaile releases.
