Can't access Android phone via MTP from KDE system

Hi,
I've a fully updated Arch_64/KDE system.
When I connect my Android 4.0 phone (via a USB port) I can't see, or access, the contents of the phone's RAM nor it's SD card.
The phone is configured as MTP.
libmtp is installed on the Arch desktop.

Please advise.

Thanks.

Enclosed please find respective journal.
