@dougfractal -- thanks for those. The key information is in the time file you added (reproduced in full below). Note that the overall time taken is 48.67 seconds, and we are seeing two requests and timeouts in association with it. This is an issue with device kit trying to determine what if anything is on the floppy:

  DKD_MEDIA_AVAILABLE=1
  Entering MS-DOS parser (offset=0, size=4096)
  read failed (Input/output error)
  Exiting MS-DOS parser
  Entering Apple parser
  read failed (Input/output error)
  Leaving Apple parser
  No known partition table found
  No partition table found on /dev/fd0: Input/output error

  32inputs+0outputs (0major+443minor)pagefaults 0swaps

Either we should not be scanning floppies in this way (and its a udev issue) or we are failing to note that there are issues reading the disk (more likely a dev-kit-disks issue).
