I was able to resolve this by initializing my iPhone using iTunes:

Title:
  Unable to initialize new Ipod, unsupported checksum type

Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Description: Ubuntu 11.04
  Release: 11.04
  Version:  0.13.3-0ubuntu6 (rhythmbox).

  3) I plugged in my iPod and selected rythmbox as the program to open it in.
  It asked me to initialize the iPod.  I selected the model: Nano Touch (6th generation) -> 8GB Green
  Put in a random name 'Apod' and clicked Initialize

  At this point I assumed it would initialize and then let me put music
  on it.

  4) It produced the error box: Unable to initialize new iPod   Unspported checksum type
  After this the iPod shows up and it can be synched (there is an error with a few of the file formats which won't be added).
  When I look through the iPod it shows no music, but when I look in rhythmbox it shows the 2.1Gb of music added.
