iPod detection does not work when banshee is launched with 'make run' without installing

Please describe the problem: I have two banshees installed: a stable (rpm) one and the current SVN. And always I try to run the SVN version, iPod is not shown. However the stable version shows it perfectly. Steps to reproduce: Actual results: Warning messages on the console: Debug: [11/01/2007 22:26:41] (Loading audio profiles) - ../../../data/audio-profiles Debug: [11/01/2007 22:26:43] (Default player engine) - Helix Remote Debug: [11/01/2007 22:26:43] (Audio CD Core Initialized) - Debug: [11/01/2007 22:26:44] (Testing device for DAP support) - /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_30E9_5C54 Information: [11/01/2007 22:26:44] (Mass Storage Support Ignoring iPod) - The USB mass storage audio player support ignored an iPod. Either Banshee's iPod support is broken or missing, or the iPod itself may be corrupted.

Yes Other information:

Well, following trickv advice on IRC, I have uninstalled my banshee rpm's and tried to "sudo make install" the SVN version and it doesn't work too. I don't understand, because I already did this test about a month ago and it worked (this was the reason I was blaming 'make run'). Then I guess it's a regression on the iPod detection because with 0.11.3 it works flawlessly...
Please test this with the new podsleuth, ipod-sharp, and banshee svn as per here: http://abock.org/2007/10/09/dogfooding-banshees-new-ipod-support/
I haven't reproduced this behaviour in some time.
