I solved and fixed my problem on my end; something, the way I was
creating the accounts (I don't know what about it specifically -
creating multiples, deleting accounts, creating new ones with the same
IDs, creating new ones with different IDs but the same name, ...?) was
messing with the permissions of the `/media/myusername` directory. I was
looking into something different when I noticed that my
`/media/myusername` directory's advanced permissions included permission
for a named user, that named user being the name of an account I'd
deleted.

The accounts with `/media/myusername` directories with a "Named User"
permission that referred to the correct user were able to access drives,
the ones with that "Named User" permission referring to the wrong
account weren't.

I was experiencing this on both my main installation, and on installs
where I'd literally done nothing but create/delete accounts and try to
mount/access drives.
