I had joined the IRC chat system last night and was talking to yofel about this issue.
Currently, when I plug a device into my box, the Device Notifier comes up informing me that a new drive has been added. However, when I attempt to mount the drive as a normal user I get this:
http://imgur.com/D6Rpi
However, if I run kdesudo dolphin from the command line, I can mount the device fine.
Current fstab: http://paste.ubuntu.com/922721/
Dmesg when plugging the drive in: http://pastebin.com/xp5vHvVn
udisks --monitor : http://pastebin.com/4LaiRWVJ
User groups: http://pastebin.com/hTYFVzZB
yofel suggested that I run kdebugdialog and see what the results were:
Permissions for /media
The drive itself does mount if I manually mount it using the mount command, and the file system is intact as I can browse it when it its mounted. However, I can't mount it when I am a normal user and NOT root.
Any help would be appreciated so I can use the Device Notifier (or Dolphin) to mount a USB Device so that I can browse it again.
