When connecting my Android device to a PC, it prompts to mount it as USB mass storage.
Is there a way to force it to auto-mount?

This would have to be solved by an application on the phone, to my knowledge, one does not exist.

Free and great app for doing this: DoubleTwist Player.

The Winamp app for Android also has an "Auto-Mount" option.

Which OS is the host? By your question I assume linux. – Elazar Leibovich – 2009-08-01T19:37:08.850
2From the question this could be any desktop OS. When you attach an Android phone to a PC, the phone gives you the option to mount itself as a USB mass storage device on the PC.
I think the questioner is asking if you can stop the phone asking and set it to just always mount when attached. – GAThrawn – 2009-08-11T21:07:39.180
I believe this question should be moved to Android Enthusiasts. Also, I think recent versions of Android offer this option natively. – Erik – 2012-04-20T21:29:30.957
1Which do you mean? "When connecting the Android device to the PC, the PC prompts to mount it"? Or "When connecting the Android device to the PC, Android prompts to mount it"? – endolith – 2009-10-11T18:03:04.933
