This hint looks like it is just a symptom of this bug: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1274987. (also appears several other places; no useful feedback from Apple yet.)
On Tiger, I never had any problems with importing enhanced CDs. This Leopard bug dismounts the audio partition - but not the data one, which is why it appears to be an issue with enhanced CDs. I suspect that anyone experiencing this problem is also experiencing issues with regular CDs. Granted, the only confirmed fix for the problem right now is manually remounting the CD - either with Disk Utility or the eject key. ---
