First general question why is www-data user opening an logind session?
That should only happen for real user, not users used by daemons. But
this is probably out of topic here.

Is the device in /dev even created, is the device in /dev/bus/usb/
created (could try to use lsusb to see this) could you try to mount the
disk manually? What is the FS used on the disk? Do you know what is
supposed to mount the disk (udisks/udisks2)? What's the version of
libselinux1 installed on your system?

And then are you seeing any AVC denials related to this?

To be honest I'm puzzled by this bug.
