Should'nt affect the audio ioctls. Some drives (old NEC drives I know for sure)
don't support the SCSI-2 audio commands, this might be a reason. This would result
in a kernel message like this: "CDROM (ioctl) reports ILLEGAL REQUEST".

Anyway, it would be helpful to see the error message you get and to know the
kernel version...
