If you have used k3b's setup wizard it will have messed around with /etc/fstab and you will wind up with 2 entries in your fstab for your drive. It could be k3b is trying to mount using the 'other' entry. If you have supermount enabled it gets even more complicated with conflicts between supermount and k3b trying to manually mount the same CD. There is a setup guide to k3b on my homepage which may help you.
