On investigation, it seems that if you open system settings and then
click on "Removable Media", Down the bottom there's a checkbox 'Never
prompt or start programs on media insertion'.

If this is unchecked Nautilus will not open a file view for a USB
pendrive or other device when it is plugged in.  This is not obvious
when coming from earlier versions, because it was separate to "removable
media" and a setting in Nautilus itself.

Bug description:
  gnome-control-center is missing setting for action to take when
  removable hard drive or usb key is inserted. After upgrading to
  oneiric, this action has been reset to 'browse media' and there isn't
  a way to change it in System Settings. 'Removable Media' has settings
  for DVDs, Bluray, Software, and many other things, but not hard
  drive/removable media.
