Modifying device actions does not work for you?
System Settings -> Advanced -> Device Actions
add -> name = "Mount only"
command=/bin/true
fill the same parameters as in "Open with File Manager"

this is what I'm using and works fine for me, but I don't know if this is not 
only KDE 4.3 feature.

PS: it updates KDE configuration, but still needs logout & login
