Configuring XMMS to play Audio CDs

After thrashing about in the wilds of Googland I came up with the following configuration steps. I had it working at one point but it sure ain't worin now! Could someone look at it and see where I went wrong? Thanks!
Code:
Rt. Click: on XMMS panel
Click: Options > Preferences
  AUDIO I/O PLUGINS--
    Input Plugins, Click: CD Audio Player 1.2.11
    Press: Configure
    CD Audio Player--
       Device & Drive 1:
         For Device enter: /dev/cdrom
         For Directory enter: /mnt/cdrom
         For Play Mode click: Digital Audio Extraction
           (ignores whether there is an audio cable connected)
         Click: Check Drive
         Click: Close on pop-up dialog box
         Note: Click on Add Drive only if needing multiple drives
         Click: OK
    Output Plugins, Click: ALSA 1.2.11
    Press: Configure
    ALSA Driver pop-up should have:
                     Audio device=default and
                     Mixer device=Master
         Select: Mixer card=VIA 8235
    Press: OK
Press: APPLY
Press: OK (AUDIO/I/O PLUGINS)

NAME
sid2wav - output wav files out of sid files SYNOPSIS
sid2wav [-commands] <datafile>|- [outputfile] DESCRIPTION
Sid2wav is a synthetic waveform generator from sid files, named after the Sound Interface Chip found in Commodore 64 personal computers. With this tool, one can 'convert' sid files to wav ones that popular music players like XMMS can play. Note that you don't have to convert sid files just to listen them, sidplay can play it for you just as it would sound on a real C64. Also, XMMS has an input plugin to play sid files directly. The use is that you may convert sid tunes to wav and later to any compressed format like Ogg or MP3 for users lacking sid- play. Other use would be to convert files to wav for audio CD creation. COMMANDS
-h gives help on usage. -f<num> set frequency in Hz (default: 44100). -16 16-bit (default: 8-bit) -s stereo (default: mono). -ss enable stereo surround. -u au output (8000Hz mono 8-bit u-law). -o<num> set song number (default: preset). -a improve PlaySID compatibility (not recommended). -a2 transparent ROM memory mode (overrides -a). -n enable NTSC-clock speed for VBI tunes (not recommended). -nf no SID filter emulation. -ns MOS 8580 waveforms (default: MOS 6581). -m<num> mute voices out of 1,2,3,4 (default: none). Example: -m13 (voices 1 and 3 off). -t<num> set seconds to play (default: 60). -b<num> skip first <num> seconds into the song (default: 0). -fin<num> fade-in time in seconds (default: 0). -fout<num> fade-out time in seconds (default: 2).
