OK, I can get rid of those guys with:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="block.device" string="/dev/ad6">
<merge key="info.ignore" type="bool">true</merge>
</match>
</device>
<device>
<match key="block.device" string="/dev/ad8">
<merge key="info.ignore" type="bool">true</merge>
</match>
</device>
<device>
<match key="block.device" string="/dev/ad0">
<merge key="info.ignore" type="bool">true</merge>
</match>
</device>
<device>
<match key="block.device" string="/dev/ad1s1">
<merge key="info.ignore" type="bool">true</merge>
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>
Now I only have:
CD-RW/DVD-R Drive
export
users
Filesystem
Network
which looks a lot better. But I still only have 1 of 2 DVDs and if I
click on export, or users I get a "Cannot mount volume" error dialog.
lshal shows:

Playing around with /dev/cd0 and /dev/cd1 I think there might be
something wrong with -STABLE. I cannot seem to mount anything
on /dev/cd0 anymore. I can mount on /dev/cd1 properly and the mounted
volume actually shows up in nautilus then disappears when unmounted.
Nothing for that device in "Computer" folder, though, except when
mounted. Strangely enough, I can also eject the disc and it still shows
as mounted. If I mount as acd1, I can't eject.
For the other drive, I get
# mount /mnt/cdrom0
mount_cd9660: /dev/cd0: Input/output error
kernel: g_vfs_done():cd0[READ(offset=32768, length=2048)]error = 5
Clicking on the "CD-RW/DVD-R Drive" in "Computer" folder gives me a
dialog that says "There is probably no media in the drive.".
