Well, it turned out that this region encoding error was a huge red
herring. I was about to flash the firmware on my machine's built-in
DVD drive to change the encoding when I decided to try an external DVD
drive that I know for sure played Region 1 DVDs (or at least, it did
in Windows).

Lo and behold, it had the same problem.

Turns out that the perms on the drive were 640, making it 666 fixed the problem.

Weird.
