hal vs. fat32 formatted dvd-ram

Using a path described in the following PR I formatted complete DVD-RAM
disk with FAT32:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=121182

Now when I insert the disk hald tastes it for a very long time (much
longer that I've seen ever before) and in the end it can not detect the
filesystem.

lshal shows this "volume.disk" device, but nothing under it:
udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_model_DVDRAM_GSA_4163B_block'
  block.storage_device =
'/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_model_DVDRAM_GSA_4163B'  (string)
  info.product = 'Block Device'  (string)
  info.udi =
'/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_model_DVDRAM_GSA_4163B_block'
(string)
  block.is_volume = false  (bool)
  volume.disc.capacity = 4580769792  (0x111090000)  (uint64)
  volume.disc.type = 'dvd_ram'  (string)
  volume.disc.is_rewritable = true  (bool)
  volume.disc.is_blank = false  (bool)
  volume.disc.is_appendable = false  (bool)
  volume.disc.is_videodvd = false  (bool)
  volume.disc.is_svcd = false  (bool)
  volume.disc.is_vcd = false  (bool)
  volume.disc.has_data = true  (bool)
  volume.disc.has_audio = false  (bool)
  block.minor = 94  (0x5e)  (int)
  block.major = 0  (0x0)  (int)
  block.device = '/dev/cd1'  (string)
  info.category = 'volume.disc'  (string)
  info.bus = 'block'  (string)
  info.capabilities = {'block', 'volume', 'volume.disc'} (string list)
  info.parent =
'/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_model_DVDRAM_GSA_4163B'  (string)

And:
$ file -s /dev/cd1
/dev/cd1: x86 boot sector, code offset 0x58, OEM-ID "BSD  4.4",
Bytes/sector 2048, sectors/cluster 2, heads 255, sectors 2236704
(volumes > 32 MB) , FAT (32 bit), sectors/FAT 2181, Backup boot sector
2, serial number 0x7fbf1210, label: "SHUTTLE32  "

I can provide any additional required debugging info.
