Is there an application or method (e.g., command the drive to "play 
audio") that lets me spin an audio CD in my CDROM drive and listen via 
headphones plugged into the drive's audio jack?

The speaker setup I have plugged into my primary desktop does not 
provide a bypass audio jack.  Unfortunately, this means I need to become 
a hermit and close up my office if I want to listen to tunes while my 
wife watches the tube.  I find the sound quality acceptable using the 
audio jack on the CDROM but I need a way to spin the disk and NOT have 
the sound come out the sound card.

Thanks,
Dave
