Mine just starting doing this, so I've tried many of the recommendations offered here and elsewhere. The one that finally worked was simply shooting canned air into the spaces around the tray button, indicating that the switch sensor was dirty. This has also cleared up the tray not opening problem that preceded this one. Also, while a tray is repeatedly recycling, no discs can be read or written to.

The only thing that worked for me was to uninstall the virtual drivers that I had (Magic ISO -Power ISO) .I do not have this problem on the other computer , but one computer will not let me have a virtual drive (unless I will put up with the crazy CD/DVD ROM drive )

The tray has been taken out of sync with the drive gears and so I just pushed it in faster than it normally would go back in, this reset the sync and all is well again. Spooky having it going in and out and in and out...
