I've been dealing with this bug since 12.04. I just freshly installed 13.04 64-bit on my main machine and if I double-click on an ISO and Brasero opens to burn it, even if I just cancel out of that window, brasero remains running and does not exit on it's own. This prevents being able to open brasero again until one kills the running instance. This is a show-stopper. Seriously needs to be fixed, or change the default app for burning ISOs.

"An instance of Brasero is already running, exiting" Status in “brasero” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “brasero” package in Arch Linux: New Bug description: After successfully burning an ISO file (by clicking on it in nautilus) I am unable to burn any more. Double-clicking ISO files has no effect. Running brasero from the launcher does nothing. If I open a terminal to run brasero, I get: $ brasero ** (brasero:4117): WARNING **: An instance of Brasero is already running, exiting The only solution is to $ killall brasero (Edit to add: there is no icon in the dock(?) indicating that brasero is running, and alt-tab does not show it, so I can't switch to it).
