So this is where I made the sloppy solution: I manually made two symlinks (/dev/cd & /dev/dvd) that point to /dev/sr0. This gave me back the ability to burn disks.
So my main question is what do I do from here? Is this a bug? I don't want to have this solution as it was just me writing educated-guesses-for-links and then trying to burn a disk with my fingers crossed. My arch system is up to date and does not use any of the [testing] repositories.
The removal of the symlinks /dev/cd and /dev/dvd from udev was intentional as they aren't provided by udev upstream. Either create your own udev rule to have them created or just use /dev/sr0. I don't know Brasero but you usually can change the device which shall be used in the settings of every CD burning tool. Heiko
