Actually, if you ignore the device notifier, the result is the same ;-)

James, this is about ripping in Dolphin.  The Volume icon appears in your 
Places list, and has an audioCD icon together with the name.  Remember that in 
Dolphin, if you click just to the right of the breadcrumb trail you see the 
url - in this case it is audiocd:/, which I assume is a hal-controlled 
mounting.

It's so simple and intuitive, that once you've read about its existence, as in 
the userbase article, it really doesn't need any more documentation.
