I see:

 "Uevent not generated! Calling udev_complete internally to avoid process lock-up."

in the log. This looks like a problem we've discovered recently. See also:

That happens when namespaces are in play. This was also found while using
the Chrome web browser (which makes use of the namespaces for sandboxing).

Do you use Chrome web browser?
