Summary: request for multi-processing for CD devices (I think the word is 'multi-processing' - ie. so that you can play an audio CD and browse the audio CD using a program such as konqueror at the same time) Full description: At the moment, if you are playing an audio CD with one program and you start accessing the audio CD with another program, the music will stop playing.
