Looks good. Can you mount the key using
 pmount /dev/sda1
If it complains about /dev/sda1 nor beering a removable drive you may
override this by putting /dev/sda1 in /etc/pmount.allow. 
If /sys/block/sda/removable doesn't conatin "1" report this as a bug.

If you camn mount it using pmount but it still doesn't get mounted
automatically plaese post all paramgraphs of lshal containing something
about /dev/sda1.
