Welcome to it.  This has been the case for me since the ata driver was
first introduced.  In my case, it's a cheap Creative labs piece of
rubbish which says ATAPI on the casing but doesn't fully comply with the
standard.

Of course, this _is_ audio CD's we're talking about.  Hardly
mission-critical for the kind of person who buys cheap Creative Labs
almost-ATAPI crap. ;-)

Ciao,
Sheldon.
