Works properly here. (Workaround: drag the icon to gxine.)

If you're too quick about starting a second instance ‒ while the first is still starting up ‒ this will happen. (I think that your filer is starting up two copies; could be down to system load and it thinking that the first attempt failed due to a time-out. Yes, gxine uses startup notification.)
