[Please confirm] Nautilus 3.18 doesn't shows SD-Cards, but USB-Drives?

Hello!

I might stumpled upon a bug in Nautilus 3.18. If I plug in a SD-Card the card is mounted but not displayed on the sidebar inside Nautilus, but the sidebar flickers (so it is at least redrawn). If I plug in a USB-Driver, it is mounted automatically and visible on the sidebar.

I've tested this with a regular SanDisk SDHC-Card, with MBR-Layout and one FAT-Partition and with a GPT-Layout and one EXT4-Partition.

If you can confirm this behaviour, please say it
Thanks

Thank you!
Here is already an open bug. Basically Nautilus doesn't shown mounted memory cards from card readers, which are connected through PCI-Express (USB works). So this issue affectes most users of ThinkPads.

I confirm - similar behaviour. I managed to see my SD card icon blinks and disappears.
Managed to access my SD card through thunar, so it's not an hardware issue.

Confirmed on a Thinkpad T410
I get the gnome dialog when inserting the card, but no card entry on nautilus.

If a card reader doesn't claim to be able to "eject"* cards, it isn't shown. This affects not all card readers, but many like the ones in ThinkPads.
I asked the maintainers to add the patch to the current to the PKGBUILD, but it seem the bug will "remain" on "upstream" till gtk3-3.18.3 is out.

* The wording there is really...uhhh
