This is just a "me too" but the exact same thing happens to me and I still have not found a way to fix it. I searched the google archives and the FreeBSD mailing list archives to no avail. I posted the problem here and received no solutions.
I cannot read audio off the disc and if I mount a data CD, it mounts okay, but will not umount without hanging and I also have to reboot the system to get access to the drive at all.
