As with my browsing the /proc/bus/usb directory (processes), I have seen all the devices assigned the permissions of 644 (rw for owner, read for group, read for others.) I am not sure is this for anything usb related or not.

Try searching through the bugzilla.redhat.com database and look for usb cdrom devices to see if what solutions or workarounds that you can find.

I could be totally off base with my observation. I hope you find a resolution.

What does running the below command show for permissions and owner?

ls -la /dev/cdrom

I'm guessing rw,r,r with root being the owner.
