Bug Description
I have connected a DVD burner to my laptop by USB. The burner is recognized and available as /dev/scd0 and /dev/sg0.
However if I insert a medium in the burner (i.e. a disc with data on it or an audio CD) the disc is not automounted, no icon appears on the desktop. In fact exactly nothing happens.
This is on an up-to-date edgy installation.
Perhaps the root of the problem is that hal detects the drive as a "scsi generic" device.
I can mount CDs by double clicking on CDROM1 in Places->Computer but I have no way of using for instance sound-juicer or banshee because I assume they only look at hal to find the CD drives (and don't find any in my case).
I'll attach the lshal output. The relevant udis start with "/org/freedeskt
Let me know if you need more info.

Is this still an issue with 0.5.7.1 or later and recent udev versions? Or can I
close this as FIXED?
