Bug Description

Binary package hint: brasero

Ubuntu version:
:$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 8.10
Release: 8.10

brasero version:
  Installed: 0.8.2-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 0.8.2-0ubuntu1

Description of bug:
When attempting to burn a CD using Brasero, it always reports the blank CD as having no free space. On the "New Audio Disk Project" window where you add tracks to the project, it shows a red "overburn" error message in the bottom status bar. If you continue trying to burn the cd, the "Disk Burning Setup" window shows "0 bytes free" for the "Size:" value. If you continue to attempt to burn the CD, you get the following error:

"Error while burning:
Insufficient space on media (0 available for 197374)."

Expectations:
I did an upgrade to Intrepid yesterday, and prior to that upgrade, I have never had a problem burning CD's or DVD's.

I will happily give you hardware information if there is a preferred method to find out the type of CD Burner I'm using. I do get this message in the system log if that is any help:

... kernel: [6171.835566] cdrom: This disc doesn't have any tracks I recognize!

I can confirm this bug - all CD-R are recognized having 0 bytes of free space. Other burning programms like k3b or GnomeBaker are working as normal.
I have not tested yet, whether this bug also affects DVD-burning. Will try that soon.
