you can allow every user to use the /cdrom by a fstab like that:
/dev/fd0        /floppy         auto    defaults,user,noauto            0       0
/dev/cdrom      /cdrom          iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto         0       0

for audio there is audio in /etc/group
(here you must enter every user explicitly)

On redhat the users who are physicaly logged in have
special rights, it think they do it with pam somehow.
