USB mount/unmount logs out current user (Default X11 / GNOME)

Thank you for posting this circ! I have been having these problems as well for the past few days. It also gets in the way of creating bootable USBs. Whenever I start the process to flash an iso image onto a USB, I am logged out and all applications, including the image creator, is exited. If there is any way for this to be fixed soon, that would be great.
