   While I have to agree that *if* cdrecord is running at a higher

know that's true in this specific case. I have not yet received any
response from the developer of k3b, and while cdrecord is listed in
the setup of k3b I'm not sure how to test that it is really causing
the specific failure I saw.

That shouldn't be too hard. While burning a CD, see the priority cdrecord is running at. You can use:
ps -eo pid,user,args,pri | grep cdrecord

Also see if you have cdrecord installed suid root:
ls -l `which cdrecord`
If you do, you can be pretty sure that it runs at the highest possible realtime priority. This is hardcoded in cdrecord. It does it if it runs priviledged.
