I am unable to open either of my dvd drives when devkit-disks-daemon is running. One doesn't open at all and the other occasionally opens but gets pulled closed immediately. Running `ps ax` I see "devkit-disks-daemon: polling /dev/hdc /dev/hdd". If I kill that process I am able to open the dvd drives and use them without problem. Please let me know what you need to debug this.

devicekit-disks: version 009
kernel: version 2.6.32
hardware: x86, 64 bit
distro: gentoo
