Thanks, Cole.  I used virsh edit to edit the XML and it works great.  All I had 
to do was change the bus from ide to scsi and give each one a unique unit 
number.

virt-manager doesn't currently support creating SCSI CDROM devices. You can
tweak the XML though, you basically want something like:

    <disk type='block' device='cdrom'>
      <target dev='sda' bus='scsi'/>
    </disk>
