I'm not an expert, but what does dev/cdrom have to do with sound if xmms plays? Make sure you set both master volume and PCM volume higher than zero, and then check what ouput is slected in xmms. Should be OSS, but there may be different outputs (Line out...). If it still doesnt work, check your hardware.
