I have an X30 with a CD-RW/DVD drive in the X3 ultrabase.

Odd. I'm not having any problems with my combo drive. It shows up as;

  acd0: CD-RW <HL-DT-STCD-RW/DVD DRIVE GCC-4160N> at ata1-master UDMA33
  cd0 at ata1 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
  cd0: <HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4160N 0012> Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device 
  cd0: 33.000MB/s transfers
  cd0: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present

I use atapicam emulation to burn CDs with it with cdrecord, can play CDs

The first thing I'd do is delete and remake the /dev/acd* devices.
