Playing an audio CD from an external USB CD/DVD-drive

I plugged a “HP USB external DVDRW Drive” to Vero4k and put in the next audio CD on my desk … and it works like a charm:

What’s different to your environment:

  • it’s a Vero4k (with an external! powered hub)
  • I’m on actual development staging (but not 4.9 kernel)
  • ?

Addition:
Plugged the drive to a Pi3 with OSMC staging but mediacenter matrix … here “Play Disc” main menu icon only occurs if you restart the mediacenter by power->exit.

So, give the power->exit a try or even reboot with the connected drive and inserted audio CD.
