Recently, mounting of USB devices has stopped working. I've seen this with both USB memory stick and MP3 player.
The symptom is that when I insert the unmounted device I get the icon in my task bar.
When I click and select mount I get a popup window that says:
IsCallerPri
See attached screenshot.
The same thing happens when I run from the command line:
$ kio_media_

After a reboot, the problem cleared itself. USB media can now be mounted without problem.
