This normally means that udev rules are wrong. Have you also installed
upstream udev rules? (10-dm.rules, 11-dm-lvm.rules, 13-dm-disk.rules and
95-dm-notify.rules in /lib/udev/rules.d directory)

Debian has modified upstream udev rules a bit so there's a possibility
that this is the source of the problem you see (debian udev rules are
renamed: 55-dm.rules, 60-persistent-storage-dm.rules, 56-lvm.rules,
60-persistent-storage-lvm.rules).

Please, try using upstream udev rules directly and also be sure that
Debian and upstream udev rules are not installed together.
