Thanks for the explanation, installing policykit-1 didn't have an effect (on 
the module), which I 
hoped it would do (ie add org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume to the list)

Wow, bummer. I was rather impressed how it worked (when it did)

I can still mount them (as root) but auto-mounting it from Dolphin (as me as 
normal user) was rather 
handy.
It still works for removable drives, but the partitions/drives in question are 
internal hard disks 
and those aren't mountable by users by default, unless you change the policy.

Thanks for the info.
