Scott,

Until you get cdrecord -scanbus to work, it won't. 

Make sure your modules are getting loaded:

    # lsmod
    Module                  Size  Used by
    ide-scsi                7020   0  (autoclean)
    sg                     11672   0  (autoclean)
    scsi_mod               37892   2  (autoclean) [ide-scsi sg]

I needed to put the following entries into my /etc/conf.modules

    alias   scd0 sr_mod
    alias   scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi
    options ide-cd ignore=hdd

And in my lilo.conf file I needed the following 

    append="hdd=ide-scsi"

Regards
