Your kill, restart nautilus window probably better then my work around. I just shut every thing and restart. I only encounter this issue about once a month now, was more common, I suppose I changed my usage. Oh I know, when I had this issue a lot I was listening to books while recovering from an operation. I was on the computer with the MP3 player probably five times normal. Good catch on the USB plug in. Maybe somebody will find it.
