    there are 2 issues
    First to get amarok to auto connect to ipod and then not to load all the tracks in a big playlist.
    While it may be possible to use a copy .desktop method with a different launch command i think this works best.
    Based on using an existing choice to autorun on ipod insertion to run a script with a proper launch comm. ( amarok -m %d)

    It may be possible to adapt this method below for music player use (ipod), but I think the above linked method is better, and easily reverted if desired

    (alternate method

    Edit: Because you have already created a .desktop in /usr ... I'd use script method. You may want to clean up what you've done. You could experiment with the launch comm. I'm suggesting, but I'd be careful
