[Bug 226650] [NEW] [Hardy] Regression: unable to burn or blank disks (CD-RW specifically)

Public bug reported:

I am no longer able to blank or burn CDs using my IDE CDRW drive after
upgrading to Hardy from Gutsy.

Wodim gives me this error:
Errno: 5 (Input/output error), blank unit scsi sendcmd: no error

This used to function fine in Gutsy. The device is properly detected as
an HP 9300+ drive.

I'll attach the output to reduce clutter in the bug report.

My Gutsy was i386, but installed Hardy as amd64 if that makes any
difference.

Not sure if this is related, but my IDE HD (that has Windows installed
it) is now /dev/sdb instead of /dev/hdb after the upgrade, so it seems
the kernel is using SCSI or ATA to manage my IDE devices now.

This may be related to 15424, but since that one is for DVDs I was told
to post a new bug.

I also have tried adding "combined_mode=libata" to my kernel params and adding a new file to /etc/modprobe.d with this line in it:
options libata atapi_enabled=1. 
Neither have helped.

My main, linux HD is a SATA2 drive with NCQ enabled, not sure if that
makes any difference. Blanking written and writing blank both fail with
the same IO error (see attachment)
