To access /dev/sr0 rw you have to change its permissions for the group, or add your user to the group.
You do not have to do anything like this at least since SuSE 8.2! http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:8.2_Resource_Manager
Normally the login process changes the ownership of the device to the user owning the desktop,

This is at least true for 10.3 and I doubt that 11.0 reverted to the old way of granting access to devices.
