This issue is due to :
hal-0.5.8.1/fdi/policy/10osvendor/20-storage-methods.fdi :

<!-- Ignore fixed partitions which are automatically mounted from fstab -->

Volume mounted in fstab with "defaults" and/or "auto" option are ignored
which is something wrong in my opinion. People are used to see their
devies (mounted or not) in computer:// and i don't see any reason why we
should ignore those drives.
