No confusion here. Are you double-clicking the drive on your desktop before mounting it in the chooser? In that case things are easy to understand, the drive shown on your desktop is no longer mounted so you can't access it. If after mounting, then I suspect the drive icon (alias) contains info that is given when you mount the disk and that info is gone when you remount the drive.
