Thanks. I went through your ps output to see which processes could
potentially be the culprit.

beagle-search /usr/lib/beagle/Beagle.Search.exe --icon
banshee-1 /usr/lib/banshee-1/Banshee.exe --indexer

Those look like the most promising. Could you try

  killall beagle-search banshee-1

to see whether that helps? If not, perhaps you can iterate through the
output of ps ux and kill processes one by one until the CD drive stops
spinning? You can pinpoint a process by looking up its "process id"
("pid") which is in the second column of ps, and doing

  kill 12345

with the particular process ID.
