Dear ark..

Maybe I have clue to solve your problem..And fortunately I just install
and setup may Sony CDROM on OpenDos..and I get success.
If you like to know..I Sony CDU55E IDE same as yours..
And I use..ECSCDIDE.SYS.....
I simply modify my autoexec and config following,

CONFIG.SYS
DEVICE=C:\OPENDOS\EMM386.EXE DPMI=OFF FRAME=NONE
...etc...
...etc...
DEVICE=C:\ECSCDIDE.SYS /D:ECSCD003 (Assume ECSCDIDE.SYS on C root dir.)
.....

AUTOEXEC.BAT
@ECHO Off
PATH C:\OPENDOS;C:\;c:\dev......
....etc...
....etc...
NWCDEX.EXE /D:ECSCD003 /M:12 /V

And I reboot and It get work...
