Sequential Systems made a driver for the Apple HS-scsi card.  It goes
into the Media Controller's drivers folder.  Like on the Ramfast, you
would use the media controller rather than CD Remote to play your
audio CDs and since Discquest and the other stuff goes through the
system tools, they should also do audio with the drivers.  It is a generic
SCSI-2 media controller driver.  The catch?  The Ramfast version of
this driver is free but the Apple version has a price tag....
