Public bug reported:

1. Connect an android phone through USB, I have also set in android 'Developer 
Options'->'Default USB Configuration'->'USB Tethering' (also checked 'File 
transfer' with same results, sadly there is no option to disable all this so 
cannot test without this step)
2. Reboot Ubuntu with phone screen locked, don't unlock the phone.
3. After Ubuntu has rebooted, there are no favourites on the dock.
4. To get the icons back, open any application and wait about a minute. 
Unlocking the phone screen after the system has booted doesn't help (see on 
that below)

Presumably after changing USB Tethering to File Transfer in android dev 
options, it started to often freeze the whole Ubuntu system boot procedure, not 
even sysrq keys are responding. The boot after the freeze is fine but displays 
tty output instead of a blank screen or the splash (i'm not always getting 
ubuntu splash screen but just a blank screen)
If the phone screen is unlocked during Ubuntu's reboot, the system boots fine 
and dock is working properly, but there is an increased chance of display 
modesets after logging in.

The phone tested runs android 10, tested an android 2 phone and it
didn't reproduce the issue. Likely setting default usb config in
developer options is the key here.

Ubuntu 20.04.1
