I think it does matter, because I have this same problem, and its annoying
as hell.  Someone told me it could be due to the type of CDROM I have.  In
case someone wants to know:

Detected scsi disk sdc at scsi0, channel 0, id 3, lun 0
  Vendor: TOSHIBA   Model: CD-ROM XM-5701TA  Rev: 0167
  Type:   CD-ROM                             ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Detected scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 6, lun 0
