Using the same computer and the same two devices... When I had TDE on CentOS6, it would auto-mount from USB once per device and then need a full reboot before that device could be mounted again, no matter what method I tried (which included all of Kate's). On Ubuntu 14.04 I can auto-mount as many times as I like as long as I make sure to right click on the device's desktop icon and select unmount before unplugging the cable. By auto-mount I mean you have to wait for the pop-up and select 'Open in [Konqueror?]'. If the pop-up doesn't pop-up, check the task bar, it's usually there flashing. The other two pop-up options don't work so well. On openSUSE (before I tried CentOS) I also had issues, not as bad as CentOS, but too long ago to remember specifics. Long story short, it's most likely the OS, not TDE, but keep trying different scenarios until you find one reliable for your box.
