The Sony CDU-924 was the first drive that has no hardware support
for CDROM XA2 mode 1. If you want to create a multi session disk,
you need to switch back to -data (plain CD-ROM)
If you have a Sony drive that gives you problems with multi session disks,
please always check the following:
For some Sony drives you may need to call cdrecord -multi -data
if you like to create multi-session CD's.
Some Sony drives do not allow to write XA2 tracks with
hardware support of the drive.
There is currently a bug in the Sony code (for _old_ non MMC drives)
of cdrecord that does not allow you to have different track types
in one session.
All Sony drives that have CDUxxx type names are _old_ non MMC drives.
Here I expect that no XA support is in the firmware.
All Sony drives that have CRXxxx type names are MMC compliant.
These drives should support XA-mode2-form1 as it is mandatory with MMC.
NOTE: many HP CD-writers are nased on Sony OEM drives.
NOTE: As for 18.5.2001, a fix was introduced that prevented cdrecord
to do multi session with new MMC compliant Sony drives.
