5 different sticks are almost guaranteed to have different mount points, so 
having an open shell sitting at /mnt/Lexar/mystuff wouldn’t whack the other 
4.  :(

Do you have access to another comp to test one of the sticks, so you have 
a ‘known good?’  You could then try re-installing whatever provides UDisks2.  
After that file a bug with PCLOS so they can file an upstream bug.
