Same here for me, my sister likes to keep her dictionary cd for windows nearby,
but also likes playing audio cd's while working, so I shared it on one of
the home servers. I never had such a problem with a cd, and I tried a
lot of them today.. ;-)

Still strange though it shouldn't happen. I tried some cd's over here
and they all had a isofs on the whole disk (the c part.) with microsofts
joliet extensions.
Curious; what does the output of ls -la /dev/acd0* say? I can image (but not
now for sure, or either say it is so, so don't quote me on this ;) that
the major and minor device numbers are changed (did you run mergemaster?) or
messed up. Try a sh MAKEDEV all in /dev to remake all of them.
