Thanks to Ondrej Holy here is a workaround :

« It seems it is problem with Fedora also. It is libblkid bug probably. 
Automounting works with libblkid-2.28 as per:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1234317

It seems Ubuntu 16.04 uses 2.27.1 version, which doesn't contain the fix
yet. Maybe you can try copy libblkid.so from Ubuntu 14.04 as a
workaround... »

So here is what I did :

There are 2 files :

libblkid.so.1
libblkid.so.1.1.0

so I've copied both from 14.04 to 16.04 and yes, it works, now dvd's
automount !

Of course do a backup of original files on 16.04 as I assume this will
cause problems with forthcoming updates (?)

Bug description:
  Hi,

  here is a dvd. And ubuntu 16.04.

  When I insert that dvd, it does not show anywhere, neither in launcher
  nor in nautilus.

  But I'm able to read that dvd using vlc through menu media / open a
  disc.

  I can manually mount that dvd with

  sudo mount -t iso9660 -o ro /dev/sr0 ~/Bureau/dvd/

  Once mounted there's a dvd icon in launcher and it appears also in
  nautilus left panel.

  That same dvd automatically mounts when running ubuntu 14.04 on the
  same computer.

  I have also tested other dvd's on ubuntu 16.04 and *most* of them show
  / mount as expected.

  But *all* of them automatically show / mount in ubuntu 14.04.
