Hmm. Looked at the code and it should be as expected. Played with
various stuff and here's what I think: it seems that having atapicam and
hald and maybe something in KDE that polls for CD change is to blame.
My theory: after I mount some media on acd0, hald wants to "taste" it
through cd0, on opening cd0 device 'prevent' command is sent, on closing
cd0 'allow' is sent, so in the end drive's tray is in unlocked state.

I don't see any easy resolution for this, but it definitely would be
good to come up with one.
