I'm using KDE, but it really annoys me too. Past (K)Ubuntu releases used to automount my partitions after I installed them, but not Hardy. It automounted it only when I opened it with Konqueror. I had to open it first in Konqueor to play my music in Amarok... Even though KDE has a nice Disk & Filesystems module in Systemsettings, new users shouldn't have to mess around with mount points and stuff like that. In this section, there's been a step backwards in usability. I've removed gparted as the affected application, replaced with HAL, but I'm not 100% sure that the problem is in HAL.
