You can't stream a cd audio raw like this (well this could be implemented 
but I'm not sure it is worth it). You need to enable transcoding.

Try this:

vlc cdda:/dev/cdrom 
--sout='#transcode{acodec=mpga,ab=256}:std{access=udp,mux=ts,url=192.169.88.123:5000}'

Or even better, in vorbis ;)  (you'll need the cvs version of vlc though)

vlc cdda:/dev/cdrom 
--sout='#transcode{acodec=vorb,ab=128}:std{access=http,mux=ogg,url=:8080}'
