I don't know about xcdroast (found it too confusing). Try cdrecord directly:
cdrecord -v dev=X,Y,Z speed=4 DEVICE_OF_YOUR_CDROM
I found xcdroast a total bewilderment too. A lesson in how not to do GUI design I think.
The only problem I'v had with it was figuring out that before you start it make sure there is a CD in your reader device or else it makes you read from the writer. Also if your setup isn't set up correctly to write data to a file by default it'll unmount and write over an exsisting partition. That bit me in the ass once.
Your cdrecord command line is correct of course, but bear in mind that if you have a slight problem with the read, the CDR is a coaster. I always do it in 2 goes - dd to a disk file, then cdrecord onto the CDR. Slower, but you can check the image by mounting it (using loopback) before you do the burn.
