I currently run 2.6.8 on a desktop machine with a 48x Lite-On burner, and do not use ide-scsi. I believe it is no longer the recommended way to do things.

cdrecord and cdrdao both work fine here with the ATAPI interface. I think K3B works as well, but it's been a long, long time since I used it, and I'm not sure if that was after i switched from 2.4.
