Hi there,

we did make an upgrade of our headless appliance (a DVD read-roboter) from 
CentOs 6.9 to AlmaLinux 8.8.

CentOS 6.9 did fire a UDEV-notification every time the DVD-Tray did something 
(insert cd, read CD, eject,...) and we could react on that.

AlmaLinux 8.8 now uses systemd, therefore the UDEV-notifications only happen, 
if the filesystem of the media is correctly identified - which does not happen 
if for example the media is scratched and therefore not readable. Now there is 
a CD inside the tray - and we do have no clue.

If we use a vanilla AlmaLinux 8.8 with KDE and insert a scratched CD - after 
some time the CD gets ejected - and we have not found out, which service does 
this.

Is there a possibility to get notified, when a CD is inserted - regardless of 
the readability.

Thanks
Gerhard
