Output of udisksctl monitor from attaching the two misidentified flash drives

I have a fresh install of Leap 42.2, using KDE. I also still have installs of
13.1 and Leap 42.1 on the same system.

I have several USB flash drives. They are various makes and sizes, but all are
formatted FAT32 and all are correctly detected by the device notifier in 13.1
and Leap 42.1 and can be mounted in the device notifier without a root
password. 

In Leap 42.2, while most of the flash drives work as expected, two of them are
not detected by device notifier. According to udisksctl monitor, they are
detected as internal drives. They can be mounted/unmounted as hard drives with
the mount command.

Both of the misidentified drives are Kingston 8 Gb, formatted as FAT32, though
one is USB 2 and the other USB 3. The problem occurs regardless of which USB
port I attach them to.
