I looked at Disk Arbitration, but didn't see any kind of event support. There were functions that looked like they would approve or block volumes from mounting, and functions for getting information about devices, but nothing that looked like a mount/unmount notification. I say "looked like" because the documentation for Disk Arbitration can only politely be described as "minimal."
