Since about 2.4.9 I have not been able to burn CDs. I get the following message in the logs.

<snip/>

Since you are using an ATAPI cd writer, try turning off (or lowering) DMA on that device.

Try either one of these (assuming you cd writer is on /dev/hdd):

    hdparm -d0 -c1 /dev/hdd 
    hdparm -d 1 -X 34 /dev/hdd
