Bug Description

I believe this is related to a recent kernel update. My dvd-rom drive has a very sensitive button, so I have a cron job that runs 'eject -i 1' every minute so that the drive doesn't accidentally open if I bump it. This has worked for a very long time, however this week I noticed that the drive was once again popping open.
