not quite: mounting works and resuming itself indeed happens now when
copying a file, but the I/O itself doesn't, but says "device offline or
changed":

and a later try to copy a file only yields (mostly my own debug prints):

thanks Alan for taking the time and trying to fix this! you're close.
what is missing?
