CD-RW changes all to root

[NoOp]

Been awhile since I burned files to a CD-RW, but today I tried Nautilus
CD Burner, GnomeBaker & K3b and while the files write to the CD just
fine, all permissions on the CD get changed to root. CD, folders,
files... everything to root. Any ideas on why this might be happening?

Output of info likely to be asked by folks who know what they are doing:

The user `gg2xp' is already a member of `cdrom'.

Note: I can erase and reburn the CD-RW from GnomeBaker. Current files on
the CD now are:
