Firewire iPod fails to mount in Gutsy

My FAT32 formatted firewire iPod Mini doesn't mount with an I/O error in Gutsy Beta. It still works perfectly in Edgy so it likely isn't a disk format problem. Closest bug I found was #40561 though the errors are somewhat different and the iPod in this case fails to mount at all. This is a clean Gutsy Beta install, I have since applied most updates, current kernel version is 2.6.22-12-generic. System has an Asus A8V motherboard with VIA K8T800PRO chipset and integrated Firewire. If there is additional information I can provide let me know.

Manual mounting and fsck also fails...
sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdd2 /media/ipod/
mount: /dev/sdc2: can't read superblock

sudo fsck.vfat /dev/sdd2
dosfsck 2.11, 12 Mar 2005, FAT32, LFN
Read 512 bytes at 0:Input/output error

(iPod is sdd instead of sdc due to USB thumb drive, problem occurs with or without drive attached.)

Relevant dmesg output below, same output repeated each time iPod is removed and plugged back in.
