I'm still investigating, but I think it has to do with gio.

Here's my drive setup:
750G WD
500G WD
250G WD
250G Maxtor
DVD-RW Drive

When I debug the brasero code, it's only coming across my 750 and 500G
drives.  And when it asks itself if these are CD drives, it obviously
gets a response of no.  None of the other drives are even coming through
to brasero's code.  It is a problem in gio, gvfs or deeper.  I made a
program to test whether gio reports your drives.  Note that when you run
it as root, it reports nothing.  Why?  Who knows...

All I know is that in Jaunty it works and in Karmic it doesn't.  It can
be tested in VirtualBox with passthrough mode enabled on the CD drive.

To compile the program:
sudo apt-get install build-essential libglib2.0-dev libgtk2.0-dev 
gcc -o main main.c  `pkg-config --libs --cflags glib-2.0`  `pkg-config --libs 
--cflags gtk+-2.0`

To run it:
./main

My output from this program:

drive detected
500 GB ATA WDC WD5000AAKS-00YGA0
drive detected
750 GB ATA WDC WD7500AAKS-00RBA0
