try using the commandline directly with:
cdrecord

(man cdrecord or google for details on using the command)

If cdrecord works, then it's just k3b being flaky, and you should report the situation to that package's maintainer.

This sounds like a hardware interface kind of glitch.

What kernel are you running? Did you compile it yourself?
Are you using SCSI emulation to burn?
What cd-rom drive are you using?
Are you using DMA?
