I've just verified it on my box and it just works. So it's hard to find out what
the problem is. I remember that I had some problems in the past after updating
the kernel but I did not recompile cdrtools or dvd+rw-tools which caused all the
atapi commands to strangely fail when trying to burn a DVD. VirtualBox also
uses that tools so I'd recommend that you just rebuild those two and check
if it helps.
