Gnome mount options for usb drive

I have an external USB hard drive formatted with btrfs. Gnome detects and mounts the drive automatically when I connect it. However it does not mount it with the compress option (verified by checking disk space usage and writing file filled with zeroes).

My question is how I can configure mount options to enable compression whenever I plug in this drive and whether I can set default mount options for all btrfs drive I plug in.

My research has left me confused as to how gnome auto mounting works. It seems to involve a combination of  udisks, nautilus and/or gnome-disk-utility.

Manual mounting with mount -o compress=lzo works as expected.

Thanks.
