Sorry for digging out an old thread, but it is really surprising that this issue has not been addressed yet! This is really a bad UI as well as UX, and the solution is as simple as merely listing down the Files in a folder.

I ran disk usage analyzer (baobob). The %s of all listed items added up to about 8%. The biggest listed item was a folder named mp3, which was about 2.5GB. I dug around using the CLI, and found an 11GB .xsession-errors file in my home directory. This was not picked up by the disk analyzer.
