Even adding `x-scheme-handler/cdda` to the desktop file

    $ grep MimeType /usr/share/applications/rhythmbox-device.desktop
    MimeType=x-content/audio-player;x-content/audio-cdda;x-scheme-handler/cdda;

and updating the MIME database

    $ sudo update-mime-database /usr/share/mime/

Rhythmbox’s desktop file is not listed.

    $ xdg-mime query default "x-scheme-handler/cdda"


Thanks,

Paul
