reading an audio cd always uses /dev/cdrom (with xine and gstreamer)

Hello,

I'm trying to fix some bugs in KsCD, specially when there are more than 
one optical drive (https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=50507).
KsCD uses
src = new MediaSource(Phonon::Cd, block->device());
to select the drive to use for the source.
But currently this isn't working properly, and /dev/cdrom is always used.
It seems me that both in xine and gstreamer backends, the selected 
device is not used.
Is it a bug in xine and gstreamer backends? or should we select the 
drive to use in another way?

Thanks in advance,
Regards,

Luc
