The problem is that the labels that appear dynamically depending oh whether or not a device is mounted confuses hal. If someone mounts /dev/cd0, unmounts it, then sees /dev/cd9660/FREEBSD appear, that will cause hal to think a new device was inserted. That said, I've only seen this happen with UFS.
