This sometimes happens to me on a Maverick amd64 system with brasero
2.32.0-0ubuntu2.2 when I right-click on a .iso image file and open it
with Brasero. It seems like this happens when I put a CD/DVD in the
drive and launch Brasero so that the CD/DVD will be recognized while
Brasero is still loading. That is, if I run Brasero immediately after I
put the disc in the drive, then usually it will come up and say that I
doesn't see the CD (until the CD is recognized). If I put the CD/DVD in
the drive and wait, eventually I'll get a dialog box that asks me what
to do with the disc. If I wait for this dialog box to be produced and
then click Cancel and *then* click Brasero, then Brasero loads without
problems and is able to start burning the disc. However, I have not
tested this extensively enough to know for sure if this pattern always
holds.

Since the above observations may suggest that this bug arises from
resource competition, it is perhaps worth mentioning that the system on
which I am using Brasero and experiencing this bug has a full GNOME-
based environment installed, but that I am in a Lubuntu Desktop Session,
which uses the LXDE desktop environment instead of GNOME 2;
specifically, it uses PCManFM instead of Nautilus. The pcmanfm package
version is 0.9.7-1ubuntu1 and the libfm0/libfm-gtk0 package version is
0.1.12-1ubuntu2. In case it's relevant, my udisks package version is
1.0.1+git20100614-3.

When I first saw this bug, it seemed like it occurred every other time I
tried to burn a CD/DVD from an .iso image by right-clicking on the image
and launching Brasero. It tended to happen the first time, rather than
the second. However, I think that was actually due to the pattern
described above--when I inserted a disc into the drive and tried to burn
to it, it was still being recognized by other system components (udisks?
pcmanfm?), but when I retried, that had finished, and Brasero was able
to launch and start the burn.
