Thank you for your quick answer, but I am sorry to say that it does not
work for me... whatever the name I give to the rules file....
Is there a way to debug udisksctl?

You said that by editing
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.UDisks2.policy , you got
it to work for non-root user. What did you edit exactly? because the
action you edited in that file, would be the action you have to use in
the .rules file in /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/.
I think you'd need to debug polkit, not udisksctl. IIRC if you press
cancel in the polkit authorisation window, an message is sent to the
system log about that, and usually it contains the exact action that
failed to be properly authorised.
(Sorry for the rather late reply, you mail got lost in my swamped inbox...).
