Public bug reported:

I'm on Ubuntu 16.04, stable install. I'm trying to open USB flash drives
and they are at first showing up as before on the Unitylauncher and a
Nautilus window open automatically with the drives content. If I unmount
the drive (eject it) and tries to mount another drive (or the same) the
flash drive for the most part starting with an open Nautilus window
again. If I unmount and tries to mount another drive again and again
then after a while it failes and no Nautilus window is showing. It can
work a few times but not for a particularly long time. The drive is
mounted though but Nautilus failes to open it. And Nautilus on the
launcher is not working either, if I click on 'Files', thus Nautilus in
Unitylauncher, it is of course also failing. Open a terminal and running
the command 'nautilus' gives this output:

"(nautilus:9292): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **:
g_dbus_interface_skeleton_unexport: assertion
'interface_->priv->connections != NULL' failed

(nautilus:9292): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_dbus_interface_skeleton_unexport:

instance

assertion 'G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE (instance)' failed"

NOTE: "Kunde inte registrera programmet: Tidsgränsen uppnåddes" above
means: "Could not register the application: Timeout was reached".

If I kill Nautilus, and relaunch it then Nautilus is appearing again and
it works for a while. It's thus for now difficult to work with
flashdrives, after some time I must kill Nautilus and that is
inconvenient. I can say that it can work for a longer time if I unmount
the drives from within Nautilus not from the device-icon in the
Unitylauncher, but through my testing I see that evidently it failes
even then after a while. So, if someone could help.

Thanks in advance!
