But I did and it does! I logged out of Gnome and restarted all three
daemons in order dbus, polkitd, and hald. Then I restarted Gnome.

I also checked and the disk is labeled under Windows, but the lshal
does not show any information on the label of that slice. The only udi
is the volume_part_4_size_41974571520. It has no children. Looks like
hald is not understanding FAT disks quite well enough.
If a volume name is not available, then using either volume.mount_point
or even block.device would be far more useful than using the size of th
partition. (But I don't know if that is a FreeBSD thing or something that
goes back to Gnome.)
The complete lshal output is available at:
