How do I disable SCSI emulation?!

Linux newbie here... I started with Ubuntu 7.04 and upgraded to 7.10. I'm trying to use cdrdao (via Arson) to burn an audio CD, but I get a cue sheet variant error every time. Likewise, ripping and burning DVD's does work, but is much slower than it should be. I'm using kernel 2.6, but for some reason my DVD RW drive is using SCSI emulation. It's an IDE drive on secondary slave (hdd), but it's showing up as scd0 in k9copy and k3b. I've spend a LOT of time looking around for a solution, and it seems to be to use ide-cd instead of ide-scsi and make sure DMA is enabled. Problem is, I can't figure out what it telling my drive to use scsi emulation. I have no lilo.conf, and nothing stands out in menu.lst or fstab. Once Ubuntu boots, I figured out how to load ide-cd using "modprobe ide-cd" and I confirmed it's loaded with "lsmod", but from that point, I don't know to switch the drive from scsi to ide. Could someone please help me, this is driving me absolutely crazy!
