Re: comment #14: I never said GParted wasn't working - I said that in my case running GParted was causing Disks (gnome-disk-utility) to show buggy behaviour.
From reading the udisks2 issue, the problem seems to do with the udev change event that's triggered either by running GParted or making partition changes using gnome-disk-utility, so our cases may have the same root cause. Running "udevadm info <partition device>" before and after the triggering action also shows the loss of partition info for me.
Perhaps udev is the next place to look, as per udisks issue 425?
