Can't Eject CD, in use

	I can't eject any CDs from my eMac at home. I get the message from the Finder that the cd is being used by another application. Console reports this: Feb 23 08:56:52 localhost /sbin/autodiskmount[243]: EjectDisk('disk1') ioctl(DKIOCEJECT) failed: 16 (Device busy) This problem occurs with any type of cd inserted, audio, game, whatever. I've quit all open apps before thrying to eject but this doen't help. Also, the icon diappears from the desktop even though the tray won't open. I can eject the CD by resarting the computer, but this is rather tedious. Any suggestions?
