As I noted my mounting started working when I did the hal updates. In looking 
back there were other updates the day before, they may have been what fixed 
it instead of the hal updates. All I know is it now works. (PIII 866MHZ, 512

This is what I get with the ps command:
ps -ef | grep hal
101       2599     1  0 08:45 ?        00:00:02 /usr/sbin/hald --daemon=yes

root      3212  2631  0 08:45 ?        00:00:00 hald-addon-storage:

My cat command:
haldaemon:x:101:102:User for haldaemon:/var/run/hal:/bin/false
messagebus:x:100:101:User for D-Bus:/var/run/dbus:/bin/false

Did you check if your user is a member of the system group: cdrom? Mine is 
also group disk, audio and video also. I don't have any audio or video dvd's 
but a audio cd mount fine in dvd drive 

Don't have any other information for you. Good Luck
