Hello Everyone
Audacious 1.5 can be set up for true auto play with proper track name, info etc., will have to install 2.x later and test.
While I normally use amarok (which also can be set up for true auto play from any drive), I have a fresh install of hardy, so I gave aud a quick try.
The only difference from amarok is aud. will only auto play from the default drive, the idea is basically the same.
The method for hardy is a bit more involved, in intrepid and I'd imagine jaunty a step or 2 could be removed.
If you set up the 'event' (inserting an audio cd) to call a script instead of a command or the default audacious.desktop then it will work perfectly.
In other words the default for audio cd's should be the script, not the player
