I've upgraded from 17.10 recently and now no removable device is recognized.



Neither cat /proc/partition nor fdisk -l shows device.

I have the same problem after update (from 17.10 to 18.04) - no pop-up shown and the USB stick is not mounted.
Changed the login type to "Ubuntu on Wayland" which didn't help (at the beginning).



The strange thing is that after some time (like 5-10 minutes) it started to work on Wayland (I suspect if first started to work on the USB port I usually use the stick).



May be it's worth playing with Wayland and all the USB ports (sounds dissapointing, but at least works for now).
