i think i'm having the same problem as phil and thirdrock, i already have wmp9 but don't know how to switch to analog mode to see if that works. any help please?
Insert into above: Select CD player from devices list
so
WMP->Menu->Tools->Options->Devicesialog->List of Devices->Select CD
Player from list of devices->click Properties button.
Tick Digital for Playback. Should work.
