I have the same bug :

hc...@hccmb-desktop:~$ dmesg | tail
[ 1275.620041] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0
[ 1277.620032] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0
[ 1279.620036] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0
[ 1281.620036] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0
[ 1283.620052] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0
[ 1285.620067] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0
[ 1287.620078] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0
[ 1289.620051] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0
[ 1291.620042] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0
[ 1293.620054] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0

With dmesg you can see some of the action ...

put in a floppy disk does ease it, but could not find an other solution yet..
this is on a fresh install of Karmic release 2 

ps aux | grep devkit-disks

root      3695  0.0  0.3  16248  3200 ?        S    10:44   0:00 
/usr/lib/devicekit-disks/devkit-disks-daemon
root      3696  0.0  0.0   5724   768 ?        S    10:44   0:00 
devkit-disks-daemon: polling /dev/fd0 /dev/sr0
hccmb     5020  0.0  0.0   3172   832 pts/1    S+   11:11   0:00 grep 
devkit-disks

sudo kill ( the pid of the polling )

is an not so nice work around....
