Bug Description

my user is in the cdrom group
still I can not burn a CD

calling
   wodim -dummy tmp.iso

results in the following error output:
  wodim: No write mode specified.
  wodim: Assuming -tao mode.
  wodim: Future versions of wodim may have different drive dependent defaults.
  wodim: Operation not permitted. Warning: Cannot raise RLIMIT_MEMLOCK limits.
  wodim: Resource temporarily unavailable. Cannot get mmap for 12587008 Bytes on /dev/zero.

calling the same command as root works fine

Release: 18.04
