Bug Description

When I try to burn data on a non empty cd-rw, nautilus keep displaying "Replace
the disk in the drive with a rewritable or blank disk, with at least xxx MiB free".
I remember that this is used to work a while ago.

This is the output od dmesg:

franky@cedlinux01 ~ $ dmesg | grep ATAPI
hdc: LTN486S, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
hdd: PHILIPS PCRW5232P, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
hdc: ATAPI 48X CD-ROM drive, 120kB Cache
hdd: ATAPI 52X CD-ROM CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache

I have managed to "workaround" this by insisting on burning the cd, that is
pressing cancel or abort , and then continue burning the cd - *weird*
