Re my previous comment, after rebooting, my drives are auto-mounting again, and now I can confirm a difference in operation between automounting and manually mounting the drive:
a) If the drive automounts, gnome-volume-manager doesn't spend ages doing something with it until I try to open it in nautilus. Then gnome- volume-manager gets busy and nautilus freezes until it has finished. b) If I manually mount the drive with sudo mount, gnome-volume-manager immediately spends ages doing something with the drive. If I try to open the drive in nautilus during this time, it freezes until gnome-volume- manager is finished, but if I wait until gnome-volume-manager is finished before opening nautilus on the drive, nautilus shows the contents immediately. This is on a freshly formatted drive.
