To have banshee see your Samsung Galaxy Nexus (Android):
Close out of banshee completely.
Plug in your phone and open the root folder (select open folder on plug-in prompt)
Create an empty file, rename it to ".is_audio_player" (no quotes)

Works for me...

Title:
  Galaxy Nexus (MTP, phone) and Xoom (MTP, tablet) don't show up in
  Banshee

Status in Banshee Music Player:
  New
Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I have a new phone, but it doesn't show up in Banshee. I've even
  recompiled libmtp to add the device ID, but that didn't help.

  As the same thing happens with my Xoom tablet (also an Android
  device), which is included in the "unpatched" libmtp, I think this is
  a Banshee bug.

  The MTP plugin is enabled.
