This looks like a kernel problem seen before, some driver confusion
after the DMA speed test of cdrecord ran through. In wodim, I added a
workaround so you can set CDR_NODMATEST environment variable to forbid
it but the real problem is still out there.

Since you use some GNOME cra^wtool, you need to make sure that the
variable is set before the application started. Set it somewhere in
/etc/environment or so.
