You might have a player that uses the mtp (Microsoft Transport
Protocol) to transfer files rather than one that automatically mounts
as a filesystem.
A bit of googling turns up some links - install libmtp, and then you
can use command line tools in that package to send files and/or sync
your player. You can also get Amarok to recognize the player as well
using that method, for a little bit better syncing experience.
See for instance http://www.funzt.info/?p=121

I used to have an Iriver T30 (it stopped working) that used the same
interface (using lenny).
There is some indication that gnomad2 might work, but I don't have a Zen.
