D-Bus doesn't require X. So I guess you're set? :-)

That above has nothing to do with X or D-Bus. That's the kernel alone.

That's also not a D-Bus thing. D-Bus has nothing to do with CD/DVD 
recognition.

Some daemons, like HAL and udisks, may perform some activities with the 
device. They may also report status changes via D-Bus. But again the 
activities are separate.
