Confirmed on Ubuntu 8.10 with updates. This is a particularly problematic problem on CD drives without a manual eject button (e.g. MacBook) after inserting an unreadable CD. Until I discovered this bug report, I did not know how to eject my CD without rebooting.

  gnome-mount --text --eject --device=/dev/cdrom # works on good CDs but does not eject unmountable CDs

  /usr/bin/eject # works on all CDs
