In my opinion this is quite a serious bug as the file manager is a core
component of the operating system. Not being able to reliably mount and
unmount SFTP  and/or Samba resources makes performing every day
computing tasks (copying files to and from network shares) a hassle.
When this issue does occur, the only way to re-mount the resource is:

1. Unmount the SFTP or Samba share in Nautilus by clicking the "eject" button.
2. Open a terminal and run: killall -9 nautilus
3. Re-open Nautilus and re-mount the share (even then, sometimes this will fail 
and you'll have to start again).

The only reliable workaround I've found so far is to install and use the
Dolphin file manager.
