I can plug in a USB drive and it works fine. I start rhythmbox and it causes the drive to be ejected.
Here is the output of dmesg: [ 571.432202] usb 2-3.1: usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd rhythmbox rqt 128 rq 6 len 1024 ret -110 [ 572.440474] usb 1-3: usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd rhythmbox
