I can't see why this should be enabled by default from the polkit
configuration:
KDE uses HAL, not DeviceKit. To avoid depending on an old PolicyKit, they
changed HAL to allow pretty much everything for users in front of the
machine (they only lock down things at the D-Bus level and the interfaces at
that place are not fine-grained enough to distinguish internal vs. external
drives). So this appears to be a HAL issue.
