I believe this bug is the same as this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/345916

It turns out it is due to the "gphoto" process (which handles MTP mode) attempting to take over access to the Sansa as soon as it is plugged in *EVEN IN MSC MODE*. If you look at the report for that bug, you can fix it by disabling gphoto, by patching gphoto, or by editing its configuration file to prevent it from accessing the Sansa in MSC mode.
