I've had the same thing happen, though I don't really understand what's
going on terribly well.  If "Ignore ownership on this volume" is clicked
in the Finder's Get Info window for the volume, and it got mounted at boot
time (i.e., by root), or by another user, it seems like this can happen.

Try unchecking the box, ejecting and remounting.
