If you use Samba you might be able to export the cd as a SMB share and
mount
it using smbmount in another location. This may or may not help, and it
is a little
crazy, but if you already use Samba it might be tried quickly to see if
it helps.

Sorry I could come up with a better plan, but good luck,
