Hi Joseph,

Suppose /dev/dvd is the device in question do a 

    fuser /dev/dvd

to see, what is using the device.

Another source for that kind of error messages are
wrong permissions of the device, you (or better your
account) is missing a certain group membership (group 
"cdrom", "cdrw" for example) or Xfburn exspects
/dev/dvd (or something else) and udev has generated
a more cryptic device name like /dev/sr0.

HTH!

Good luck!
Best regards,
Meino
