How does that manifest? What error message do you get? What are the contents
of your /etc/fstab?

How do you mount it manually? Have you compared it to what's in /etc/fstab?

Did you actually read the manpage for systemctl to understand what "systemctl
default" does?

Quoting:

       default
           Enter default mode. This is mostly equivalent to isolate 
default.target.
and:
        "isolate" is only valid for start operations and causes all other units 
to
        be stopped when the specified unit is started. This mode is always used 
when
        the isolate command is used.

So, "systemctl default" on Debian effectively kills all units except for the 
ones
that are wanted by default.target. Don't run "systemctl default".

Probably the default.target should be reconfigured in Debian's systemd package
to avoid this problem.
