Since you successfully burnt from the command line, I would go through
the checklist in showinfo.
For example:
3b. - For every user who should be able to use k3b and for every CD or DVD
device add a directory in the users home directory. These directories
must be owned by the corresponding user. For each such directory add a
line in /etc/fstab (see remark 2), like:
/dev/cd0c /usr/home/XXX/cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto,nodev,nosuid 0 0
Furthermore allow user mounts as described in topic 9.22 of the FAQ:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/disks.html#USER-FLOPPYMOUNT
seems you missed this!
Sorry I can't really help you further, I've done all this once and it
worked ok, but I don't currently have k3b installed on any of my systems
so I can't give you more specific pointers.
