[Mageia-dev] KDE Automounting broken again

I have automounting enabled in KDE system settings Removable Media, and 
both automount on login and automount on attach are checked. But nothing 
is getting automounted.

Likewise, if I load a blank DVD and bring up the device notifier and 
check the "Mount" button, nothing happens.

Automounting was working fine a couple of days ago.  I update cauldron 
once or twice a day, but hadn't rebooted until this morning.

The only indication that appears in syslog when KDE recogizes the blank 
DVD is:

Nov 27 13:35:19 localhost systemd-udevd[29398]: failed to execute 
'/usr/lib/udev/socket:/org/kernel/dm/multipath_event' 
'socket:/org/kernel/dm/multipath_event': No such file or directory

There is nothing in syslog when I click the Mount button on the device 
notifier.

This happened for a while back  in January:

, but Colin traced it then to gvfs needing udisks2.  Probably not the 
cause this time.
