What modules are loaded? You should see at least the following items:
ide-cd ide-scsi cdrom
Make sure that you have hdd=ide-scsi as a option after the kernel in your boot loader.
What do you see when you ls the /proc/scsi/ directory? you should see an ide-scsi directory.
what do you get when you cat the scsi entry in the /proc/scsi/ directory? You should see someting like the following.
Attached devices: Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: SAMSUNG Model: CD-ROM SC-148S Rev: SS09 Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02

I've been stuck in a conundrum with trying to play audio CD's as a normal user (works perfect as root). Recently I had to change the way my ATAP CD/RW was probed at boot time. I am now using SCSI emulation, whereby /dev/cdrom now points to sr0 rather than /dev/hdd.
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Apr 24 19:37 /dev/cdrom -> sr0 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 11, 0 Apr 13 1999 sr0 brw-rw---- 1 root disk 11, 0 Apr 24 19:25 scd0
The user in question *is* a member of the disk group, so the read/write permissions are correct. Is there another reason why I get the following error with cdparanoia:
/dev/cdrom exists but isn't accessible. By default, cdparanoia stops searching for an accessible drive here. Consider using -sv to force a more complete autosense of the machine.
More information about /dev/cdrom: Checking /dev/cdrom for cdrom... Testing /dev/cdrom for cooked ioctl() interface /dev/sr0 is not a cooked ioctl CDROM. Testing /dev/cdrom for SCSI interface No generic SCSI device found to match CDROM device /dev/sr0
*The same error still occurs if /dev/cdrom points to /dev/sdc0 too
