Someone please find a realistic solution for this soon. It's a miserable blight for KDE in 13.1 to begin life this way.
I have a feeling you will struggle to find a fix for it. As was stated in the thread you linked... floppies are obsolete (for many years) and finding someone with the knowledge AND incentive fix an issue for hopelessly obsolete hardware (even if in your use case, you still use them) is going to be very difficult... or more likely impossible.
I haven't seen a computer with a floppy drive in 5 or 6 years now... and now, CD/DVD drives are becoming rare... soon to be obsolete as well.

It seems from bug-reports that this is a udisks2 problem perhaps adding ENV{UDISKS_IGNORE}="1" to the fd* statement to 80-udisks2.rules in /lib/udev/rules.d/ would hide the problem at least. Like so : # Tag floppy drives since they need special care # PC floppy drives # KERNEL=="fd*", ENV{ID_DRIVE_FLOPPY}="1", ENV{UDISKS_IGNORE}="1" Sorry i have no fdd to test with.
