gparted not finding mounted drive


Why would gparted not show a mounted partition (and unassigned space)? This is on a Sandisk Sansa e270 which mounts it's data on /media/Sansa. I can utilize the music files but the player won't work. I'd like to reinstall the player software but the Sandisk utilities won't even install (in Windows) if the player software is not working. I thought it would be easy in linux but Gparted doesn't show either the mounted partition or device software partition and it used to so.

Remove the device then reattach.
Don't open the device through a folder. Click ignore or x out the window which pops up.
Code:
dmesg|tail && lsusb
post the output here.

As root:
Code:
fdisk -l
Post the output here.
