I believe you've got your /etc/modules.conf file snafu'd.  This is
what I have in mine for SCSI emulation.  Like you I have two CD-ROM
drives -- one a DVD and the other a CD-RW.

#server-> more /etc/modules.conf
alias   scd0 sr_mod                  # load sr_mod upon access of scd0
alias   scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi    # SCSI hostadaptor emulation
options ide-cd ignore=hdd            # if /dev/hdb is your CD-writer

/dev/hdd is my CD-RW.  Here's what I get when I do the same
command --

#server-> cdrecord -scanbus
