hi, i just hit this problem too, but this is on my fedora (fc 15) machine. here's the error:

# cdrecord dev=/dev/sr0 -scanbus

scsidev: '/dev/sr0'
devname: '/dev/sr0'
scsibus: -2 target: -2 lun: -2
Linux sg driver version: 3.5.27
cdrecord: Invalid argument. Illegal value for busno, target or lun '529,0,0'. Cannot open SCSI driver.
cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'.
cdrecord: For possible transport specifiers try 'cdrecord dev=help'.

note the busno of 529. everytime i connect or disconnect a usb device the number goes up. and since my dvdwriter is external via USB, that means i cant burn anything with it until i reboot.

any workarounds are appreciated.
