OK folks, I found it :-)

The mediumautostart does not work, if this section exists in 
~/.trinity/share/config/kdesktoprc:

[Media]
enabled=false

Steps to reproduce:
That section is not there from the beginning, it's introduced by kcontrol. 
Start kcontrol, go to "Desktop/Behaviour/Device Icons". Unselect any 
(e.g. "My Computer"), "Apply". (I'm not sure it "Apply" is necessary).
Next time you log in, the mediumautomounter does not start. 
Putting a checkmark in front of "My Computer" does not revert this setting, 
you'll have to edit ~/.trinity/share/config/kdesktoprc and change it to:

[Media]
enabled=true

Now that was a funny day ;-)

Could somebody please try to reproduce?
