Your smartd.conf has this:

> DEVICESCAN -d removable -n standby -m root -M exec /usr/share/smartmontools/smartd-runner
...
> /dev/sdb -d ignore

smartd.conf(5), on the other hand, specify that:

  ignore  -  the device specified by this configuration entry should be
ignored.  This allows to ignore specific devices which are detected by a
following DEVICESCAN configuration line.

I.e you should probably specify DEVICESCAN and -d in other order, i.e.

> /dev/sdb -d ignore
> DEVICESCAN -d removable -n standby -m root -M exec /usr/share/smartmontools/smartd-runner
