Cannot mount USB Drive after Image burn

[tahaun]

After successfully burning an image, the usb drive is no longer mountable. Removing the usb drive and re-inserting, Elementary OS no longer detects the usb drive as being plugged in.

OS: Elementary Loki 0.4.2
Device: Lexar USB Drive 16GB
Test Image: Linux-lite-3.4.iso

I confirm. But let me switch from dd to udisk as first #3.

PS: flashed disk is bootable. I tested 32 and 64 bit versions

I tested some distros: (elementary, arch, opensuse, rasbian). All works fine.

If you try to write Linux Lite on your device just by sudo dd if=linux-lite-3.4-32bit.iso of=/dev/sdc bs=1M (as example), disk will not be mountable. But you can boot and install from it (it's same behavior like image burner).

Artem, Love your project. Elementary OS really could use a native looking ISO burner app. I'm curious as to know how you would move from dd to udisk? Wouldn't you still need dd to write the image to USB? Are you just using udisk for drive info, mounting/unmounting? Also when having multiple USB drives plugged in, how does it know which one to choose for writing image? Thanks and keep up the great effort!
