I have the very same problem, and could workaround it like this, by editing the persistent CD rules to use the ID_SERIAL instead of ID_PATH and rebooting. > We have two options here: > 1/ Fix /lib/udev/write_cd_rules and > /lib/udev/rules.d/75-cd-aliases-generator.rules to work with udev v204 > and if necessary update the existing > /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules. > For that, someone needs to investigate, what changed in udev. That'd be great. Just FTR, all by-path entries seem to be gone, no more /dev/disks/by-path/ > 2/ Follow upstream and simply drop that "feature".

I don't think it's sensible, because there still are many an application that use /dev/dvd as the default DVD device. First coming to mind is MPlayer. Of course you can tell it to use another device, but it won't detect the device automatically, so it kinda breaks its default configuration.
