openSUSE 12.1 Factory, last dupped 18th Oct 2011 at 22:50 UTC

Observed Behaviour:
I own two USB optical drives for use with my laptop
1x iomega SuperSlim DVDRW8x-U 31785700
and
1x Zalman VE-200 USB hard drive that can emulate a USB Optical drive by reading
ISO's on the hard drive

In both cases, connecting the drive with a disk in it to my 12.1 machine
normally (but not always) is detected by the OS and the drive is automatically
mounted by my GNOME installation
However, in all cases swapping the CD in the drive (or swapping the ISO being
used in the case of the VE-200) is not detected. 
The drive is unmounted, and never remounted when new media is put in the
optical drive.
Unplugging the USB optical drive and replugging it normally kicks it back into
life again.
If this problem is occurring on SATA Optical Drives as well as USB Optical
drives, this makes the use of optical drives in my 12.1 installation all but
useless (can someone please test ASAP)

Hotplug and automount is working perfectly for standard USB Flash drives and
external hard drives, it just seems to be Optical Drives which are fubar.

Expected behaviour.
Swapping the disk in the drive is detected and automatically mounted by the OS
This worked perfectly in openSUSE 11.4 and Tumbleweed.
