my laptop (acer 4002WLMi) has a dual DVD burner (HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4080N) which does not seem to be able to correctly burn audio CD-R's under linux. data disks are fine, and the burner does audio without problems under WinXP. what i get when burning audio under linux is a playable disk, with correct track number and durations, but the audio content consists of bits of the original audio looped as follows: the first ~0.023s of audio is looped for ~0.36s, then the 0.023s of audio at that point in the file is looped for the next 0.36s, and so forth 'til the end of the track.
