It's hard to imagine why there would be two speaker outlets - could it be
that one is headphones or something?

Anyway, what I was going to suggest was playing around with one of the
gazillion of audio mixer applications - perhaps the CD is hard-wired to
the second output and it's not showing up on the first output (which
would be the correct one) because you have the Sound card's mixer volume
for the CD turned way down.
