Correct. Most hardware cd player are designed to play only the first
session on multisession disc, where in this case (CDEXTRA), the data
track will be ignored. Unlike mixed-mode cd, the data track (on
first track/session) usually result in silence playback.

In case somebody might interested, I have a patch for (unfortunately)
RELENG_5 for atapicd multiblock access. Among other things, it
also fix multisession/dao writing of burncd(8). With this, you can
have conccurent access with varying blocksize on atapicd.

It's a bit ugly. Somebody with deeper knowledge on ata/GEOM probably
will have better solution for this.
