Can you try a command line burn?  Something like:

	growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=/path/to/.iso/file

and see if that works?  It often does for me when the GUI stuff fails.

And no, I've never sorted out why the GUI fails, but I suspect there's
a race condition between the burning software and the desktop manager
trying to mount the volume before the burner is done with it.
