Those old keys should be automatically handled (thanks to GConf to
gsettings mapping) but the new keys should be set this way:
(the how-to is from
https://help.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/dconf-lockdown.html.en )

-to set the default values, create
file /etc/dconf/db/local.d/00-defaults containing :
[org.gnome.desktop.media-handling]
automount=false
automount-open=false
autorun-never=false

[org.gnome.nautilus.desktop]
volumes-visible=false

- then you need to lock them, by
creating /etc/dconf/db/local.d/locks/defaults containing:
/org/gnome/desktop/media-handling/automount
/org/gnome/desktop/media-handling/automount-open
/org/gnome/desktop/media-handling/autorun-never
/org/gnome/nautilus/desktop/volumes-visible

- and you need to create/update dconf database by running:
dconf update (as root)
