The bug still valid for me. A workaround is to set uid cdrecord.

eduard@LaMaquinaDelMal:~$ ls -l /dev/sg*
crw-rw---- 1 root root 21, 0 2006-10-26 22:45 /dev/sg0
crw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 21, 1 2006-10-26 22:45 /dev/sg1

 cdrecord --scanbus outputs several "Error trying to open /dev/sg0 exclusively (Permission denied)... retrying in 1 second." and finally stops with "cdrecord: Permission denied. Cannot open '/dev/sg0'. Cannot open SCSI driver.", like k3b output in Ahmed Kamal comment.
