Update: The original problem is _not_ gone yet. Now it takes just 2 seconds to eject the CD (since it is not spinning by default), but the sound and network are still affected during this time.
On this page
http://bugs.debian.org/370186
you can find some information to tell HAL to ignore the CD drive.
