From the manual page:
raw | audio Set the write mode to produce audio (raw mode) tracks for
the following images on the command line.
From the Handbook:
You have to use raw PCM with burncd(8). If you use WAV files, you will
notice a small tick sound at the beginning of each track, this sound is
the header of the WAV file. You can simply remove the header of a WAV
file with the utility SoX (it can be installed from the audio/sox port
or package):
% sox -t wav -r 44100 -s -w -c 2 track.wav track.raw

SoX is given as example in the Handbook, and also dd(1) for duplicating
audio cd
(http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/creating-cds.html)
Perhaps burncd(8) should be more explicit, I think Soren is the right
person to take care of this.
