Seems fixed in the latest version in sid. I hit a new bug, sorta which
is present with those experimental libs.

Steps to reproduce:
- put cd in first drive
- start playback
- stop playback
- take cd out, put it in second drive
- go to "options"
- change cd drive
- hit "close" --> closes gnome-cd and not just the dialog

It's probably unrelated. I think the old bug was caused by some weird
hal-udev interaction or something.

greets,
Wim
