Can't connect audio cd to virtual machines












0















I have a Windows VM under KVM-QEMU-Virt-manager, and I have been unable to get a CD to show under Windows



$ sudo virsh attach-disk myWINVM /dev/sr0 hdc --type cdrom
error: Failed to attach disk
error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'eject': Device 'drive-ide0-1-0' is not removable


I get the same error trying to pass to a Linux guest.



If I use virt-manager GUI to attach sr0, Windows recognizes the disk but Windows can't access this The disk might be corrupt..... These are normal audio cds that work fine on other devices.
When I try to pass to Linux using this method, there is no error, but no media shows up in the guest.



I get the same pattern of errors if I use /dev/cdrom for the above steps. Is there something I am missing about how to connect CDs to VMs? Do I need to unmount it from the host in some way to make it available to to the guest? Is this an issue with my hardware?
