I get the same behaviour on my box. All attempts to burn a cd fail.
Most tries failed before the burn could even start, but sometimes
it manages to write 10 - 25 % before failing. 
This drive used to work just fine. The symptoms have manifested 
themselves in 7.2. I suspect the kernel being the reason also. 
Maybe something with scsi-drivers ?

Here's a sample output from cdrecord (driven through x-cd-roast):
