In my experience, K3B works well for burning data CDs & data DVDs, but not as well for musik CDs.  I have had good luck with the version of Nero burning ROM for GNU/Linux & for Windows for burning musik CDs.  I'm not a fan of non-libre software, but when I burned musik CDs using K3B, and some other libre software burning programs, I had annoying audio problems that weren't always noticeable at first.

1. You likely did this but just in case, just k3b's perms setup/
2. Check all related perms (dvdrecord, cdr* etc).
3. See if you can complete a burn as root (if you can, it's a perm problem)
4. Also try burning at half the adverted speed.
Because of today's corner cutting standards, disks are not always adverted
speeds.

Let us know what happens and good luck,

Kate
