OK, I wonder whether the problem is to do with starting CD/DVD Creator
and then running Brasero.  To stop it running automatically got to
System Settings > Details > Removable Media > Other Media and set the
action for blank CD to Always Ask.  It might not fix the Brasero
problem but worth trying.

If it still doesn't work try running Brasero from a terminal and see
if you get a useful error message.

On the other hand if you get it working with another app then don't
bother.  I am persevering with asking about Brasero as I have not
experienced many problems with it myself.

OK, probably not a fundamental problem with the drive.
