I have a similar problem with a newly installed All-in-one setup
running oVirt 3.2.1. When starting a VM with an CD-ROM image
attached, I can see the following message in engine.log:

2013-04-29 16:38:33,744 INFO  [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.VdsUpdateRunTimeInfo] (DefaultQuartzScheduler_Worker-9) Received a cdrom Device without an address when processing VM 658ca53d-12cf-4b03-973d-a0d2cdf5315f devices, skipping device: {shared=false, bootOrder=1, iface=ide, index=2, specParams={path=FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso}, device=cdrom, path=/rhev/data-center/93cacf4c-6891-4c44-8b46-f1acf6913605/d61b3c06-b320-4b47-9981-5d64c0ce3736/images/11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111/FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso, type=disk, readonly=true, deviceId=089a2b81-89a8-4868-acb0-a991b2f6b9a7}

As a result of this message I can see with `virsh -r` that the
CD-ROM is starting up with default configuration and NO IMAGE
attached:

    <disk type='file' device='cdrom'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
      <source startupPolicy='optional'/>
      <target dev='hdc' bus='ide'/>
      <readonly/>
      <serial></serial>
      <boot order='1'/>
      <alias name='ide0-1-0'/>
      <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='1' target='0' unit='0'/>
    </disk>

This is a Fedora 18 ovirt host with all updates installed and the 
following oVirt packages installed:

ovirt-engine-3.2.1-1.fc18.noarch
