CD writing used to work for me with brasero but today it has stopped working.
Creating an audio CD brasero posts the message: "Please replace the disk with a supported CD or DVD" and in the space calculation it is using zero as the size of the disk. It does this with two different blank CD-Rs.
I have checked with journalctl -f when inserting the CD and no messages appear. Upon starting brasero I get:

I have also checked permissions. /dev/cdrom is a symlink to /dev/sr0 which has permissions:
brw-rw----+ 1 root optical 11, 0 Jan 4 19:07 /dev/sr0
I have checked that I am a member of the group opitcal, which I am.
Brasero will let me create an image file so I tried writing that with wodim:
$ wodim -dao cuefile=~/brasero.cue
Device was not specified. Trying to find an appropriate drive...

I did look in the /var/cache/pacman/pkg directory to see what has recently been upgraded. The only thing that struck me as relevant was the kernel and downgrading that to 4.2 (instead of the current 4.3) does not solve the problem.
Google has not found anything recent on this. Any ideas, please?

Try the fake writing mode. Not sure about the cue sheet file you are using. Where's your image at? Or possibly try using k3b, which will probably give the same messages as above. You can usually write an iso file to CDR with just cdrecord. Or do as wodim says, wodim -dao -raw96r ...

I may have to CONSOLE you about your usage of ridiculously easy graphical interfaces...
Look ma, no mouse.

Hi,

This means that the drive believes the medium is already written.
Did you already try with a different CD ?
> wodim: CUE sheet still not accepted. Please try to write in RAW (-raw96r) mode.
Better don't follow this advise. At least if you want the
medium to be readable.
What do you get from this command when the CD is inserted in
the drive:
wodim dev=/dev/sr0 -toc
Or from
xorriso -outdev /dev/sr0 -toc
Have a nice day :)
