Bug Description
I can systematically reproduce this by following these steps:
- start a fresh unity session (I logout and login again)
- insert a USB stick (or CD)
- [it appears in the launcher]
- drag and drop it to Trash
- [the USB stick is safely removed]
Actual Result:
- no OSD notification (happens to me also with audio CD)
Expected Result:
- OSD notificaiton appears
If I try this again (re-insert the stick, drag and drop it to trash again), the OSD notification appears (but it must be the same medium -- e.g. USB stick).
I'm seeing the following results:
1. insert USB stick
2. eject USB stick
3. no OSD notification
4. insert audio CD
5. eject audio CD
6. no OSD notification
7. insert audio CD
8. eject audio CD
9. OSD appears
10. insert USB
11. eject USB
12. OSD appears

That's not expected at all, at least not in the code. If syncing takes less than two seconds or so, no notification is supposed to happen, and if it takes longer, you'll get a dialog box with a progress bar.
So if you would rather want a notification, I suggest changing this into a wishlist bug.
