Honestly I have no idea, just Debian default whatever that is.
Sorry, I guess that would have been a good thing to put in the opening message.
Debian Stable, mostly default except for TDE of course.

Hi.
I have "removable media" selected to show up as desktop icons, and for the most part memory sticks do so. I've noticed that some external drives don't, however. As soon a they're mounted, the icon vanishes from the desktop.
If it happened with all of them, or none of them, I'd understand. What doesn't make sense is that it's seemingly random. I have 1-TB USB drives that vanish, and seemingly identical drives which remain visible.
Am I just late for the party and this has been known forever?
Well ... let me put it this way: this problem comes most likely from systemd. It does not exist with eudevd.
"Maybe" the systemd guys will eventually release a fix, but don't count on it.

Curt-
let me guess: you use systemd-udevd, don't you?
