I have the same problems with eject and volume control as well.

Someone else posted that Workman (an xview CD audio player) has been ported to
BSD/386, and there are diffs on bsdi.com (for version 4.0.1beta).  Anybody know
where I can get Workman version 4.0.1beta source, or a patched version that runs
under FreeBSD?  I couldn't find v4.0.1 with archie.
