I have s Sandisk Cruzer Micro too, and I believe the culprit is U3 
(basically a proprietary version of Portable Apps).  U3 has delusions of 
grandeur, including claiming it is a CD-ROM device.  The solution I 
chose was to completely reformat the disk (of course copy all data off 
first) with parted.

Can you reply with the output from:

# parted /dev/sdb print
