Don't know, but a wild idea. Maybe you forgot to change the
/dev/cdrom symlink? It should point to /dev/scd0 (or /dev/scd1) if
you use scsi-emu (and perhaps the cd-players use it ??).

There is an option when you compile the kernel "Probe all LUNs on each
SCSI device" (in the SCSI support section). Default is yes, but you
should set it to no if you think 2 SCSI devices is enough :)
