automount: don't queue volumes when the session is inactive (1.69 KB, patch)

Description William Jon McCann 2011-03-07 04:36:37 UTC 
I just switched to another user session that I wasn't using for a few hours.  When I unlocked the screen I saw a stack of dialogs saying "Unable to mount DEVICE  Not authorized".

I had been using USB keys in another user account and it seems like this inactive session tried to mount them.

We shouldn't try to mount media when the session is inactive.

This is untested, but should help.
