If you had a bad sector in the section that stored the current playlist order on the scratch partition, what would the command be to zero THAT out?

Down-down-down. You don't specifically care about the zeroes, you just care that it gets written. Selecting a new playlist will write all the sectors you care about. If selecting a new playlist doesn't clear the error, your disk must have run out of replacement sectors in that zone (or there's something else going terribly wrong), and writing zeroes instead won't help.
