I'm afraid that's just how the kernel works here -- if there is a process which keeps accessing the CD-ROM, it will try to read it and thus close it again. You have to properly unmount a CD before you can reject it. If that doesn't cause the pktcdvd process to be killed automatically, this is a bug in pktcdvd, reassigning.
