The issue from my perspective is that the CD ROM can be any arbitrary name,
dynamically assigned via udev rules. In my case, I had two external CD ROM
devices which had been attached at some point, and the first was assigned
/dev/cdrom and the second was assigned /dev/cdrom1. When I had plugged in the
second one, which now had a persistantr rule for it, Amarok would not play
Audio CD's from it. If I manually edited the udev persistant rule to point to
/dev/cdrom it would work. The same was true for Kscd.

So, the issue here is that even though Solid uses HAL as a backend for
dynamically finding hardware abstractions, and the KIO slave audiocd:/
recognizes whatever udev say my CD ROM is, the applications which really need
this dynamic behaviour, instead are locked to only read from /dev/cdrom.
