I've had this happen twice, for 2 very different reasons - and I don't know
if either of them are your problem (and I've never tried inserting media to
see if it helped, so YMMV).
Anyways, once I had a hostname conflict, and I couldn't open any folder
without a long delay. Resolving the hostname conflict solved this.
The other time had to do with my supermount problems. I disabled supermount,
redid all my icons, and all was well.
Hope this gives you some idea as to where to start.
