You may want to reconfigure your kernel.  Delete the atapi cdrom
entries and add

           device atapicam
           device scbus
           device cd
           device pass

rebuild your kernel and install it.

Now your DVD-WR will be seen as a SCSI burner and you will be
able to burn your cd using xcdroast, cdrecord, etc.
