...puaj,

not helping yet,
i got 

andres at andres-desktop:/media$ lshal -u storage_model_DVD_RW_ND_2500A  |
grep block.device
block.device = '/dev/scd0'  (string)

while 
cdparanoia -Q -v

Checking /dev/sg1 for cdrom...
	Testing /dev/sg1 for SCSI/MMC interface
		SG_IO device: /dev/sg1

CDROM model sensed sensed: _NEC DVD_RW ND-2500A 1.70 

Checking for SCSI emulation...
	Drive is ATAPI (using SG_IO host adaptor emulation)


and I tried both,
/dev/sg1
and 
/dev/scd0

and neither worked,
but I am extracting now with sound juicer
which makes me feel as a dumb win user,
