I have been facing the same problem with hardy, with jaunty and now with karmic. I have tried doing sudo killall hald-addon-storage, didn't work then I did /etc/init.d/hat stop and even after that the problem remains. So, maybe , it could be related to something other than hal. I have found from dmesg that my dvd-rom is listed as a scsi device so i will do hal-disable polling for all UDIs containing scsi and see what happens.
