Audio cable for SATA DVD/CD?

I am begining a new build, mATX, and I am considering several SATA DVD/CD burners/recorders. I have no experience with these and when I view pictures of the rear connections I seen no place for an audio cable. No audio cable appears to be included in the retail boxes. Is there no need for audio cable in the SATS interface ?
 
Correct. Audio cables on DVD/CD drives are obsolete and no longer used. Check this thread:

Correct. Audio data are being read like normal data, and then digitally rendered by the sound engine.
 
It's been that way since IDE drives learned to do digital audio extraction properly ... which was around the 24x era.
