[ale] mount issue

I am experiencing the same phenomena with Mint 17.2.  In my case,
sometimes it automounts correctly, but not always.

In the case where it doesn't, if I switch user to another logged in user
I often see a message wanting me to confirm the mount by entering the
password for the sudo-qualified user.  I hit the Cancel button, and
switch back to the proper user.  Usually, but not always, I find that
same message displayed there.  Sometimes, if I have more than two users
logged in at the same time I may have to switch through more of them to
find the proper panel to "Cancel."

Haven't figured out how to get a consistent automount without root
confirmation.

I, too, find this annoying.
