Then need to be part of your login chain.  Check to make
sure /var/run/console/ directory exists and a file with your username
and a console.lock file exist.  If they do not then you are not
configured to use pamconsole.  Mount simply checks the existence of your
username file to see if you are at the console and allowed to mount.
Pamconsole does some heuristics to determine if you logged in locally or
remotely and then places that file if you are local.  The first person
to login gets the console.lock.
