Does burning CDs with burncd work on your setup?

Also, when cdrecord hangs, you can try to at least unlock the drive with
the following commands:

# FLUSH CACHE (abort CD write sequence)
camcontrol cmd 2:1:0 -c 0x35 -v &&
# PREVENT/ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL
camcontrol cmd 2:1:0 -c 0x1e -v

(replace 2:1:0 with the appropriate target identification for your CD
writer).
