When this has happened to me, it turned out that I had the drive set up as slave. It was the only drive on the chain, but because it was jumpered as slave, the system and linux both said it was the fourth drive. I had no second or third drive in the system. 

Another thing to keep in mind. Burning will happen on /dev/sgX, where X is the device on the "scsi" bus. 

Are you burning in "test" mode?
