Seems like everybody has some variant of this problem. I'm having difficulty getting the CD drive to read the disks I put in. I'm using PCman as my file manager and when I try to access the CD drive I get a pair of error messages that simply say "..." This is followed by a third error saying "Directory doesn't exist." My HAL is configured for hotplugging if that matters.
I've been wrestling with this for a couple days and tried several solutions from both the wiki and the forum. Any help with fixing, or just suggestions on how to better diagnose the problem would be much appreciated.

I had this problem using hal, Slim, openbox and pcmanfm. Solved it using this post
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=65070
which I found in the Wiki/Table of Contents/Hardware Detection & Troubleshooting/Hal/Permission Denied page.
I only had to follow the two steps in the PS, after which I could access cd's as normal user.
Hope this helps.
