I can confirm the issue. I have an Nvidia chipset.
This behaviour (remounting after safe removal) happened to me under Ubuntu 11.04, 11.10 and 12.04

  "Safely Remove" USB drive works great, but is remounted immediately

  Binary package hint: unity

  Ubunty Natty, update of today (02.04.2011)

  Right clicking (either on the desktop or in the on the sidebar) an automounted USB disk's partition and choosing "Safely Remove" umounts and removes all the partitionsicons of the drives, but within seconds they reappear remounted again. "Safely Remove" again, in 4-5 seconds they are back. 
  I'm not sure if this is a bug or a feature. I tried disabling in Nautilus the "browse inserted media" feature, but that didn't help.
