Well, I waved my hands at it for a few minutes, but nothing changed... 
hmm.... =-)

My question to you was partially rhetorical, since a good solution just
doesn't exist.  Even the polling option isn't good because it will
disrupt things like burning CD's; in Windows, the CD burning software
packages that are out there go through an impressive set of hoops to
deal with this polling problem.
