The man is spot on.

I've seen issues in the past where the firmware somehow gets corrupt, and as a result, the opto sensor doesn't "fire up," effectively meaning that it assumes no CD/DVD present.

Updating the firmware, even if the current version is the latest is usually the best fix for the issue.
