Try setting the CDROM as SLAVE on its bus. It helped me once, and I can tell
this bug has been present in 4.x for at least 2 years, but nobody with some
ATA knowledge ever tried to diagnose it
(http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=56889).
It's obviously a matter of device/controller/driver interaction, the problem
is not widespread. I personally have a PC exhibiting this behaviour (runs OK
with the CD-ROM jumpered as SLAVE), I would be glad to help, if properly
guided.
