How exactly do you users login and start their X session? gdm, kdm, XDMCP anything else? If the user is logged in, does he have an *active* ConsoleKit session? Check the output of ck-list-session.

Opening up the hal configuration completely is dangerous so I strongly recommend against that. Try to find out, why consolekit is not working as expected.

Adding the exact user to the plugdev group on the local machine worked as far as the mounter. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=501807 You might try using at_console and consolekit. I tried installing policykit and using that, got identical errors as without (Dbus access error).
