I think you may have the probe-all-LUNs set, and a CD burner which
responds to more than one. That's one possible cause for this.

Unfortunately using ide-cd still doesn't have the code set to allow all
burning features to work if you are not root. Even if you have
read+write there's one command you need to do multi-session which is
only allowed to root. Works fine for single sessions, I guess that's all
someone uses.

Haven't tried unloading the module, so I have no advice on that other
than "don't do that."
