Georg,
Do you think this comment from cdrecord just before
the failure was related??

Your example does show dummy mode being used. If 
the plextor "didn't like fixation in dummy mode"
then it might respond with a SCSI error message
that contained:

> Sense Key: 0x5 Illegal Request, Segment 0

The question is, does it fail when you do a real
burn (i.e. without the "-dummy" flag)?

P.S. Thanks for the offer to help with the sg driver.
