CD-ROM drive won't play music CD's

Hello. When I put a music cd in my cd-rom it spins-up, but no sound comes out of the speakers. I tried using Winamp and then the Windows Media Player, but neither produced any sound from them. The cd-rom spins the disc, and the indicator light blinks as though it's playing the cd. I can play MP3's and other audio just fine, and the cd-rom works perfectly otherwise. The driver for the sound card is installed properly, too. I checked the volume settings, none of the options are "muted", and they all have the right balance. I think I just might not have an option checked somewhere or something like that, because my cd burner won't play them either. Any help?? Thanks.

Check the audio cable running from the cdrom drive to the sound card. It might have come loose or maybe was never installed.
