Data CDs must be mounted, before you can get access. I'm not booted
into Ubuntu right now, but from command line it likely should work like
this:

  sudo mkdir -p /media/optical
  sudo chown root:cdrom /media/optical
  sudo mount -t auto /dev/cdrom /media/optical

The following is completely not my approach, I guess mounting by

  thunar

should work like this:

It likely requires the package GVFS, that most likely is installed by
default.

If you run

  id

the user by default should be in the group "cdrom".

Also launch
  
  xfce4-settings-manager

and take a look at
