Problems with gnome-volume-manager et al in sarge

I started playing with gvm/hal/dbus/pmount today, but have had some
problems.

1. gnome-volume-manager is not started on login-- but I can start it
from the command line (and thus add it to the session at a later date).

2.  When I insert a data cd into my cdrom drive, gvm/hal/pmount mounts
the cd 7 times (as scd0 through scd6).  If I insert an audio cd,
gnome-cd is launched 7 times.

3. I can't unmount the cd from within nautilus (right click on device,
Unmount volume).  It said I wasn't the one who mounted it.  Have to
unmount each from the command line as root.

I am in the plugdev group.  I removed /media/* (but they get recreated
when I insert a cd).  I removed the entries from /etc/fstab.  Obviously
I am doing something wrong, and am the first to admit that I am very new
to gvm/hal/dbus/pmount.  I googled for documentation, but couldn't find
much.  I looked in /usr/share/doc/gvm|hal|pmount but couldn't make much
headway beyond what I have already done.

When inserting a cd, gvm outputs this:
