HAL Error - Thunar-volman / USB Hard Drive

On my last arch setup, I installed hal,gamin, thunar and thunar-volman.  I could then plug in my usb HD and when U turned it on it would mount. I could then read and write to it as a user.  This time when I installed the same programs, added hal to my rc.conf, added my user to groups storage and optical, and plug in my drive, I get an error that says

If I plug the drive in and do a su -c 'mount /dev/sdc1 /home/justin/backup' it mounts fine to /home/justin/backup
I dont know if I am in the wrong group or I need to add the drive to my /etc/fstab . I googled the error, and it seems to give me a bunch of hits, but all relating to cdroms and kde bugs.  I tried to post any relevant commands I could think of, if their is anything else needed, please let me know.  Thanks, Justin
