USB audio CDs?

Is AUDIO from USB optical drives supported? See below for what I've tried
under 6.3-RELEASE (unsuccessfully).
(I tried freebsd-questions without any reply and only saw a couple of
unanswered posts on the topic when searching the archives for this list.)
Thanks for any advice!

Subject: USB audio CDs?
I have a USB DVD-RW drive that I'd like to use to rip music under
6.3-RELEASE, but I don't seem to have a /dev/acd0 (and can't get "grip"
(from ports) to work from /dev/cd0). /dev/cd0 shows up fine, but audio CDs
log errors and "grip" can't do much with /dev/cd0. Using /dev/cd0, grip
is able to see the TOC for the CD, but attempting to rip only generates
errors: 006: Could not read any data from drive (repeats per track)
Repeatable for different CDs. I was able to mount a cd9660 disc from this
drive without a problem.
I've previously done this (using grip) with ATA/SATA optical drives of
various sorts, as well as used various (non-audio) USB mass-storage
devices without any problems, but this is my first shot under *BSD at
getting audio off a USB optical drive.
I read through the USB related man pages, FB handbook, and googled without
finding any answers... Would appreciate any advice!
I have all of these in my running kernel:
device uhci # UHCI PCI->USB interface
device ohci # OHCI PCI->USB interface
device ehci # EHCI PCI->USB interface (USB 2.0)
device usb # USB Bus (required)
device ugen # Generic
device umass # Disks/Mass storage - Requires scbus and da
device scbus # SCSI bus (required for SCSI)
device da # Direct Access (disks)
device pass # Passthrough device (direct SCSI access)
device cd # scsi cd for cd-r/burner on USB
device atapicam
I tried it both w/ and w/o atapicam.
Attaching device with audio CD loaded logs the following:
