Hi Mikkel;
I appreciate that this is Aaron's thread but I seem to be having exactly the same problem. What I have found may be useful to both of us.

I can mount data CDs and play DVDs when inserted but when I insert an audio CD no icon appears on the Desktop and no audio playing occurs.
It looks like they moved it to the Media tab of System --> Preferences --> File Management.
So they have but that does not help. By tomorrow I will collect more information and someone may have a solution.
I didn't read deep enough into your message. If you are not getting an icon, then I suspect a HAL problem. Did you install any new software that would grab audio CDs?
The first thing I would do is look at the messages in /var/log/messages after you insert an audio CD for any clues.
I adjusted System --> Preferences --> File Management and granted myself full sound and removable disk privileges through System --> Preferences --> Authorizations a couple of days ago. Yet I still get the following this morning:
/var/log/messages:

At one point, while working on another issue, I had SELinux completely disabled -- but no joy re: sr0 (my DVD/CD drive). The July 9 upgrades included selinux-policy and selinux-policy-targeted updates. Perhaps they are the problem?
