That will happen if the device got ejected, not just unmounted. E. g.
if you use the eject symbol in the nautilus bookmark folder, or
right-click and "Eject" (which is the same). If you right click ->
umount, the device should stay available.

If you really just unmounted the device, that'd be a bug; please
report it.

Thanks, Martin
