I was suprised too. For one moment I thought something's wrong with the 
vol_id, but when I execute the above command with no cd in drive I get 
/dev/hdb: error open volume
which is ok I suppose. And no matter what cd is in (the problematic or a 
regular one) I get no info from vol_id. I don't know if that's normal. I even 
tried -t -l -u switches, but without result.

Of course I did :). If I didn't I would end up with an error anyway.
