I think the problem is hald-based. I've read reports that hald only reads group memberships from /etc/group on startup and will only accept those users listed in the plugdev group there. Group permissions assigned by LDAP are not considered. I've got a whole lab of computers experiencing this same problem. With users being added on a daily basis, maintaining local /etc/group would be a complete nightmare.
