I had to do two things to fix this:
>1. To enable the control of CD-ROM audio volume: Start Windows Media Player. Click Tools, and then click Options. Click the Devices tab. Select the CD-ROM drive that you are using for CD-ROM audio playback. Click Properties. Click Analog in the playback section. Click OK, and then click OK. Quit and restart Windows Media Player. The CD-ROM audio volume slider controls the audio CD-ROM volume.
>2. Go to administrative Tools > Computer Management > Storage > Disk Management, then your CD drive. Right click on the drive, select properties, then properties tab. Uncheck "Enable Digital CD Audio for this CD rom device". Reboot. That fixed mine.
