OK, some updated testing:

In KDELoad a DVD, get the device popup, and dismiss it.  Do a "df", and 
see that there is no munt under /media.  If you bring up the Device 
popup and select "Open with File Manager", Konqueror opens and displays 
the AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS folders.  If you then do a "df", the volume 
*has* been mounted under /media and stays mounted after you close 
Konqueror, and now syslog shows:

Jan 27 10:18:46 localhost kernel: VFS: busy inodes on changed media or 
resized disk sr1
Jan 27 10:20:23 localhost kernel: UDF-fs: Partition marked readonly; 
forcing readonly mount
Jan 27 10:20:23 localhost kernel: UDF-fs: INFO Mounting volume 
'CSI_NY_S7_D1', timestamp 2011/08/01 22:55 (1ed4)


So it appears that KDE is now delaying the mount until you tell it 
through the device popup that you want to run something it (KDE) "knows" 
requires the mount ?  That is certainly going to screw up direct 
invocation (not using the device popup) of any such application.
