[mythtv] CD/DVD always mounted so eject fails

Since before Xmas (i.e. before 0.21 was released) I've been trying to work
out why the rework of the media monitor prevented my use of the eject
button on the DVD drive.

I just happened to look at the state of all the NFS mounts tonight and saw
that the frontend keeps the disk in the mounted state so of course the
button will NEVER work.

Manually unmounting doesn't stop anything from working on the frontend and
it allows the eject button to work again (much better WAF then!!) so the
question is, why does the media monitor, when it has sussed there is a
disk in the drive but its not being used (eg sitting at the main menu)
still keep it mounted?

Cheers
