I don't have full kde installation. After emerging kaudiocreator I was unable to rip any CD since it was complaining about missing audiocd slave. Emerging kde-base/kdemultimedia-kioslaves:4.3 solved the issue. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. unmerge kde-base/kdemultimedia-kioslaves 2. emerge media-sound/kaudiocreator 3. try to rip a cd
Confirmed and fixed. Thanks for reporting.
