Bug#998718: Brasero fails (on Testing) burning an ISO image on a CD-RW

On Testing / Cinnamon it's impossible too "copy a disk"

(another voice of Brasero menu)

The CD-RW seems to be recognized and the burning begins,

but fails with:

Session error : Impossibile bloccare l'unità ((null)) 
(brasero_burn_record brasero-burn.c:2854)

that is (more or less): "Impossible to block unity".


The same on Stable / KDE with Brasero further installed

(obviously with all its dependencies).

After Brasero fails, it's impossible to erase the CD with K3,

and it's necessary to reboot ("No disk on /dev/sr0")

After reboot, K3B recognize the presence of the CD and blank it.

So, in Xfce, Cinnamon or KDE, the trouble is present
