    I have a similar system.  Maybe this information will give a clue.  
Sometimes KDE apps are slow to let go of a drive.  My system does not 
list the cdrom as mounted even when konqueror has it open!  You might 
run mount to see if it is in the list.  If so, try umount 
-l /dev/cdrom.

    This feature is all new to me, by the way.  I didn't know konqueror 
would do these things.

    I have SuSE 8.2, KDE 3.1.1 with kernel 2.4.20-64GB-SMP.  I tried to 
mount the audio CD via right click and it said "...busy...".  In user 
konqueror, I put in audiocd:/dev/ and all the tracks showed up as 
files.  They copied just fine, but as .cda files.   I didn't get wav.  
My ls /dev/cdrom gives:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2003-09-23 23:22 /dev/cdrom -> sr0

    (It is a SCSI cdrom player.)

    However, when I look at /dev/cdrom in the konqueror file browser 
window, I get:

cdrom 0B Block Device 14-Mar-03 08:07 rw- --- --- jak cdrecording -> sro

    Strange that they would simultaneously show different information 
about the link.  Maybe Konqueror shows info for the link and ls shows 
info for what it points to.
