Such problems are unavoidable in this setup since commands to one device on the channel can't execute while the other device is busy (especially for long commands like finalizing the disc).

This is the exact situation cdrecord's -immed option was designed
for. "wodim"/cdrkit should have inherited it. It sets a flag in the
commands to avoid blocking, though the documentation I read said it
was slightly experimental.
