I also have this problem and if it is the same bug I have narrowed it
down to "lightdm".
I am using Mint 17 (based on Ubuntu 14.04). Mint's default login
manager is "mdm" (fork of gdm). With it, usb devices are auto-mounted
just fine when plugged in.
When I install lightdm and choose it as the login manager, after reboot
then devices *do not auto-mount anymore*. Just as the previous poster,
the dmesg output shows that the device is correctly found and attached,
but not mounted. When I click on the device in Nautilus or Nemo, it
will then mount just fine, but it needs this manual interaction.
If I then uninstall lightdm, choosing mdm again as the display manager,
upon reboot the auto-mounting of usb devices works just fine again.
So.... it must be something in lightdm for me. A udev rule not
finishing somehow triggered by lightdm? An upstart trigger involving
lightdm that hangs things up? Any advice on where to look from here
appreciated.

But after that nothing happens. I checked the dconf variables as per
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB but it's all correctly
set. I can mount the disk by hand:
% sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt
% mount | grep mnt
/dev/sdc1 on /mnt type vfat (rw)
...and it works ok.
Add: using from command line udisks works, too:
(0)samsung-romano:~% udisks --mount /dev/sdc1
Mounted /org/freedesktop/UDisks/devices/sdc1 at /media/PENDRIVE
