Bug Description
I believe this is the same issue as bug 582501, but as that bug report appears to be dead, I am restating it here. Reading around the interwebs, it appears to be a very well known and long-standing bug.
tumblerd prevents removable media from being removed. This happened to me this evening with an mp3 player. From what I have read around the web, this happens only when there are video files on the media, and I can confirm that the media I was trying to dismount this evening contained a video file.
I have just noticed that the drive I was trying to unmount has finally unmounted while I was researching and writing this report. So it appears that this bug may simply delay unmounting, albeit for an unacceptably long time, rather than outright preventing it.
