Alright, when I restart with the USB devices plugged in it behaves differently; I can see that the device is there but can not mount it.
I have Cruzer 8G; when I plugged in before restarting the laptop, the red indicator (on the USB device) did not light up at all; after the restart it did.
$ ls /dev/sd*
