CD/DVD change not recognized

[kallewirsch]

Binary package hint: udisks

If I insert a disk into my CD/DVD drive, nothing happens (not shown on desktop, rythmbox, no traces in syslog). udisks --monitor-detail shows nothing, although udisks --enumerate / --show-info and dmesg show the drive properly.
If I however issue udisks --poll-for-media /dev/hdb after disk insertion, the disk appears as if by magic.

This affects at least all powerpc installations (see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1323153 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-mount/+bug/507113).
