Why not use "dev=ATAPI:/dev/hdd" or whatever device in /dev/ is
your burner...?

Sth. seems to be wrong here. When I do this as user I get
...
Use of ATA is preferred over ATAPI.
Warning: Using ATA Packet interface.
Warning: The related libscg interface code is in pre alpha.
Warning: There may be fatal problems.
Using libscg version 'schily-0.8'.
...

so it seems that your kernel is still blocking some command in the userland.
This might cause your problems, because I get the same write modes as user
that I get as root. I use 2.6.9 but have allowed some more commands for
users. You can add this in linux/drivers/block/scsi_ioctl.c to see if
some commands are blocked as user:
