What type of iPod are you tryng to connect?
I've succesfull connected iPod from all the previous generation, not tried
with the newest (iPod touch - iPod new Nano large screen etc).

Normally, when I plug for the first time one iPod Amarok display a dialog
asking if I want to manage the device and the the type of this. Then the
entire db is displayed and you can copy from and into the iPod from your
amarok music library. Try to unplug and then plug in the iPod when amarok is
up and running, what happens?
What is in your /var/log/messages ?
And finally what lsusb report about your iPod?
