I have just had exactly the same problem. Wrote a CDRW in GCombust, finished 
OK, wouldn't eject the CD.

lsof reported that nothing on the cd was open. ie "lsof|grep cdrom2" and 
"lsof|grep scd0" both reported nothing.

Seeing that nothing was open I unmounted it with "umount -l /mnt/cdrom2" and 
that at least gave me my cd back. Everything appeared fairly sane I think. 
The jury is still out as to whether I can burn another CD following this one, 
and I'm no expert about what I might have broken with that unmount.

I did have supermount enabled.

(My drive is a Dyson 1622 (ages old!) and the Media is CMC badged as Memorex.)
