DVD Drive Mounts 7 Times!!

Hi there,

I posted this onto the Hoary development forum but I got no response
so I thought I'd ask you friendly chaps and chappesses!

Whenever I put a CD/DVD in my drive, it mounts perfectly:  which is
good.  What is not so good is that it mounts it 7 times!!  I get 7
device icons that I can browse into to view the contents of the disk.

Under KDE, at least the icons are hidden until I want them.  Under
Gnome, 7 desktop icons are created and 7 Nautilus folders are popped
open showing the contents which is rather annoying.

Does anyone have a clue as to why this would happen?  I assumed it
might be something to do with my hotplug configuration although I have
left this unchanged from the default.

I have an Acer Aspire 1523WLMi laptop, Athlon 64, 1GB RAM with a dual DVD RW.

Many thanks,

Peter.
