Bug Description
After inserting an external drive, flash drive or data CD/DVD, the drives show up unmounted in the side pane even though in Volume Manager the preferences have been set to automount and display contents.

I have "Mount removable drives when hot-plugged" option enabled.
However, thunar-volman fails to mount any removable media.
I've made the following script as a workaround for the issue:
cat /usr/local/ bin/thunar- volman thunar- volman $@ >/tmp/thunar- volman. log 2>&1
#!/bin/sh
sleep 1
exec /usr/bin/
Mount succeeds if thunar-volman is started after a small delay. volman. log looks as follows: volman. log
If I comment "#sleep 1", mount fails and the output of /tmp/thunar-
cat /tmp/thunar-
thunar-volman: Could not detect the volume corresponding to the device.
/usr/bin/ thunar- volman --version
thunar-volman 0.8.0 (Xfce 4.10)
