Hey! Well it turns out the problem was solved in a very simple and desperate way: by tweaking something that appeared to be entirely mostly unrelated and irrationally hoping for a different result.
I had had little success with cdrdao (because I couldn't figure out how to convince cdrdao that my IDE burner was a SCSI drive) and using cdrecord directly had not helped either. Oh and I couldn't compile k3b, thanks for the suggestion anyway though! I ended up in xcdroast one more time and under advanced options it said Swap Audio Byte Order. I figured what the hey and I turned it on and to my surprise the CD burned perfectly. I am still in the dark about what this actually did (insights anyone?), but it certainly solved the problem. Thanks again for the help, sorry the solution was so lame on my part.
