HAL/thunar-volman issue when usb hub turned off

My monitor has a builtin USB hub which I use to connect removable storage. It works as expected when I plug something in, thunar-volman mounts the device in /media and all is well. Ejecting works too. However, when I turn off the monitor, and the USB hub loses power, the devices are not unmounted. When I turn the monitor back on the devices are mounted again in different locations, ie:

$ ls -1 /media | grep USB
USB
USB_
USB__

My usb key is mounted at USB__, but never unmounted from the others, they are left pointing to a non existant device. Eg:

$ mount | grep USB
/dev/sdf1 on /media/USB type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,shortname=winnt,uid=1000)
/dev/sdg1 on /media/USB_ type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,shortname=winnt,uid=1000)
$ rmdir USB
rmdir: failed to remove `USB': Device or resource busy
$ umount USB
$

Anyone know what the culprit is here?
