Does it work locally ?
e.g. cdparanoia -d /dev/cdrom -b 1- - | LD_PRELOAD= sox -t raw -r 44100 -c 2 -w -s - -t ossdsp /dev/dsp
If not, then your cdrom is probably too slow. You could try turning off
the jitter correction (-Z option of cdparanoia).
If it works locally, but not with the server then your server is
probably too slow. Try renicing nasd to -15.
If you compile libaudiooss from source you can also try to adjust
FRAG_SIZE and FRAG_COUNT parameters in nasaudio.c .
Increasing FRAG_SIZE may help.
