Somehow, hotplug events get lost somewhere.
Most probably in dom0, otherwise the mknod+mount would work.

Look for syslog messages in dom0: You should find things like
logger: /etc/xen/scripts/block: Writing backend/vbd/1/769/physical-device
  0x0700 backend/vbd/1/769/node /dev/loop0 to xenstore.
there.

Use xenstore-read backend/vbd/DOM/DEVNO to check what the scripts
have set up in dom0. (DEVNO = 256*major+minor)

Best,
