I hate to say it, but I was
able to reproduce this. I had to comment out the cd0 line in /etc/fstab
to have hald handle automounting the dvd. Once I did, I was able to use
the device feature in KDE to launch one of 4 actions. Launching in
dragon player opened it up but didn't do anything. I clicked Play Disc a
few times and it just sat there. I chose the open in Kaffeine option and
the DVD opened right up (Ghostwriter). Dragon simply shows "No media
loaded" in the bottom left. Running from console produces no interesting
debug lines. I can get dragon player to play other files on the
harddrive without issue.
