umass detected, but da is never created

[Niklas Nielsen]

I have an iPod shuffle and expirences the same problem - no cabling is
envolved, its a kind of USB stick. And I know that the iPod worked in
5.4, so I highly doubt hardware issues.
And to Philip - I'll give a beer at the local pub if you post a patch ;)

Best regards
