I've been seeing this for a while:

also:

Several people seem to be confirming this, but there's been no movement 
on the bug for quite a while.  It seems it may only be a subset of 
drives which suffer (but I've got 2 different models here, both CD and 
DVD which fail).

The (semi) good news is that it's only the automount which fails.  You 
can manually mount any of these disks and work with them that way.
