K3B NOT detect my DVD Writer

I have a Sony DVD-RW AW-G170S S-ATA, but K3B NOT detect and show me this message:

No CD/DVD writer found.
K3b did not find an optical writing device in your system. Thus, you will not be able to burn CDs or DVDs. However, you can still use other K3b features like audio track extraction or audio transcoding or ISO9660 image creation.

I installed cdrkit & dvd+rw-tools.
How can i solved??

Use Arch Duke 2007.05 x86_64. Anybody have idea?
Thanxs in advance!!:)

Yeas, but i can't open like an user.

$ sudo gpasswd -a jack optical

But K3B WORKS only by root.
