You need to have gvfs installed if you want an icon to pop up on the
desktop when you plug in a usb drive. You can have xfce without gvfs. I'm
not sure about the other desktops.

I think they just recognize whatever filesystems are mounted. Not sure
what they use to recognize an audio CD.

gvfs (or gvfs-daemons) requires libsystemd0. If you were keeping that out,
that would account for trouble with automounting usb.
