Hi,

I just played around with it a bit and found temporary workaround:

I installed setcd and with this tool one can set the auto open/close
flag (no idea why such a thing even exists)

Appearantly Karmic sets the Auto close tray flag (for me after each reboot)
$ setcd -is
/dev/cdrom:
  Auto close tray:     set
  Auto open tray:      cleared
  Use O_NONBLOCK flag: set
  Lock tray:           set
  Check CD type:       cleared
  Drive is not ready

If I execute the following to clear the flags:
$ setcd -e 0
/dev/cdrom:
  Auto close tray:     cleared
  Auto open tray:      cleared

The problem is solved until the next reboot.
So one needs to check where and why this flag is set - if this is the general problem and not only valid for me of course.
