I have the same problem; I upgraded to Hardy today to get the fix for smart playlists in banshee only to find that it no longer recognizes my iPod. In fact, my iPod's database had been corrupted by gtkpod on gutsy, and gutsy banshee is the one who repaired it! So I don't see any reason why hardy's banshee wouldn't recognize the database.
Here's my startup output:
