I cannot play CDs with Amarok because they are always shown to have 0 tracks. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert an audio CD into the DVD drive in my computer. 2. Wait for the system tray pop-up for new device "Audio CD". 3. Either click on the option "Play audio CD with Amarok" (phrasing could be different, I use the German language pack) or start Amarok from the menu. Actual Results: In the left column, a new entry "Music CD" pops up which says "0 tracks". I cannot do anything with this new entry except clicking the "Eject" symbol, which ejects the CD from the drive. Expected Results: The new entry "Music CD" should show the list of tracks of the CD and I should be able to play the tracks. The same issue also happens when Amarok is already open when I insert the audio CD. I can successfully play CDs in VLC and Dragon Player and can rip the tracks in K3B. I can also open the audio CD in Dolphin. I had already opened a bug for this issue at https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=486517 I was told there that the problem is that Amarok is still a Qt5 application and, because of that, needs https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/kf5-audiocd-kio. But Fedora 40 no longer provides this package. It only provides https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/audiocd-kio, which I assume is the Qt6 variant of that module. Here is the log output of calling "amarok --debug" and then inserting a CD into my DVD writer: amarok: BEGIN: bool IpodCollectionFactory::identifySolidDevice(const QString&) const amarok: Device "/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/sr0" doesn't have PortableMediaPlayer ipod interface or StorageAccess interface -> cannot be and iPod amarok: END__: bool IpodCollectionFactory::identifySolidDevice(const QString&) const [Took: 0s] amarok: BEGIN: void MediaDeviceCache::slotAddSolidDevice(const QString&) amarok: [MediaDeviceCache] Found new Solid device with udi = "/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/sr0" amarok: [MediaDeviceCache] Device name is = "HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH22NS50" and was made by "" amarok: [MediaDeviceCache] device is an Audio CD amarok: BEGIN: void MountPointManager::slotDeviceAdded(const QString&) amarok: [MountPointManager] looking for udi "/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/sr0" amarok: [MountPointManager] Did not find device from Solid for udi "/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/sr0" amarok: END__: void MountPointManager::slotDeviceAdded(const QString&) [Took: 0s] amarok: BEGIN: void MediaDeviceMonitor::deviceAdded(const QString&) amarok: BEGIN: void MediaDeviceMonitor::checkDevice(const QString&) amarok: OpticalDisc amarok: AudioCd amarok: [MediaDeviceMonitor] Device identified with udi: "/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/sr0" amarok: BEGIN: virtual void ConnectionAssistant::tellIdentified(const QString&) amarok: BEGIN: const QString MediaDeviceCache::device(const QString&) const amarok: END__: const QString MediaDeviceCache::device(const QString&) const [Took: 0.001s] amarok: BEGIN: Collections::AudioCdCollection::AudioCdCollection(MediaDeviceInfo*) amarok: [AudioCdCollection] Getting Audio CD info amarok: BEGIN: Meta::MediaDeviceHandler::MediaDeviceHandler(QObject*) amarok: END__: Meta::MediaDeviceHandler::MediaDeviceHandler(QObject*) [Took: 0s] amarok: END__: Collections::AudioCdCollection::AudioCdCollection(MediaDeviceInfo*) [Took: 0s] amarok: BEGIN: void Collections::MediaDeviceCollection::slotAttemptConnectionDone(bool) amarok: [MediaDeviceCollection] starting full scan amarok: BEGIN: virtual void Collections::AudioCdCollection::startFullScan() amarok: BEGIN: void Collections::AudioCdCollection::readCd() amarok: END__: void Collections::AudioCdCollection::readCd() [Took: 0.005s] amarok: END__: virtual void Collections::AudioCdCollection::startFullScan() [Took: 0.005s] amarok: END__: void Collections::MediaDeviceCollection::slotAttemptConnectionDone(bool) [Took: 0.005s] amarok: END__: virtual void ConnectionAssistant::tellIdentified(const QString&) [Took: 0.007s] amarok: [MediaDeviceMonitor] Device already identified with udi: "/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/sr0" amarok: END__: void MediaDeviceMonitor::checkDevice(const QString&) [Took: 0.007s] amarok: END__: void MediaDeviceMonitor::deviceAdded(const QString&) [Took: 0.007s] amarok: END__: void MediaDeviceCache::slotAddSolidDevice(const QString&) [Took: 0.009s] amarok: BEGIN: void Collections::AudioCdCollection::slotEntriesJobDone(KJob*) amarok: [WARNING] [AudioCdCollection] void Collections::AudioCdCollection::slotEntriesJobDone(KJob*) "Erstellung des Ein-/Ausgabemoduls nicht möglich.

Hi I tried to run it on Fedora 41. Tried to install kf5-audiocd-kio and kf5-audiocd-kio-doc from Fedora 39. But kf5-libkcompactdisc is also needed, but conficts with libkcompactdisc from Fedora 41. I then stopped because the problem is not important enough for me to break My Fedora 41 system (VLC works) I will wait for kf6 version of amarok. Regards, Pierre
This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 40 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 40 on 2025-05-13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a 'version' of '40'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden. Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see it. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora Linux 40 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version prior to this bug being closed.

I have verified that the issue still persists in Fedora 42 and have changed the version number accordingly.
I am working on building Amarok 3.3 on Fedora. As it will be Qt6 only, hopefully this issue will be fixed :-) It might take a bit of time though as it needs a bunch of updates in different libs and, as of right now, still in _beta_
