Missing CD/DVD icons in Big Sur

Anyone know how to get back CD/DVD icons in Big Sur? Ever since upgrading to it I can access the discs but the icons are missing as you can see in the attached screenshot.

Mac mini 2018 or later

It isn't a preferences issue since DVDs and CDs show icons but blank blu-rays for data storage or blu-ray movies don't. Looks like Apple programmers forgot to give UDF (Universal Disk Format) disks a default icon. Considering Apple joined the Blu-ray Disc Association Board in 2005 this seems like a dumb oversight.
