I am not sure that this error is specific to USB drives.....I have had 
problems for three or so distros now in having icons show up on desktop for 
native internal harddrives, despite how KDE system settings is confgured.  I 
can not offer any more suggestions on how to pursue it.  I solved my isue by 
building symlinks, but this will likely not work with dynamically mounted 
drives.
