Try doing that with the drive not in use

Given the fact that the drive ejects when you push the button a second time, it's not in use actually.
I can reproduce this bug only once. When I re-insert the CD, let it automount and then eject it by button, it comes out instantly without error messages.

I just double checked, and it doesn't matter whether it's the first time i've inserted the disk or the fifth, it always gives me the stupid error the first time i try to eject.

Do you still have "gnome-volume-manager" activated in your gnome session ?
If so try to deactivate it, it may help, since gnome 2.22 uses GIO/GVFS now and gnome-volume-manager should not be needed any more.

Here's the changelog for gnome-volume-manager (we're at 2.22.3). It looks you're right about gnome-volume-manager, updating should fix this.

* configure.in: Bumped version to 2.22.4

* src/manager.c: Disabled more stuff and fixed up other stuff.

* src/properties.c: Disabled UI for iPod preferences. Apparently
this is also now handled by Nautilus.

* configure.in: Bumped version to 2.22.5

* src/manager.c (gvm_hal_init): *Sigh*. Disable Eject event
handling as well. Nautilus is supposed to handle this now too.

Reopening: this is not fixed until we upgrade to the latest version of gnome-volume-manager.
