Public bug reported:

When I click 'Browse Network' in nautilus, I get a list of computers
advertising SFTP on my network.

My laptop doesn't show up in the list.

Here is the avahi output for my laptop (the MAC address has been removed):
chris@chris-iMac:~$ avahi-browse -ta | grep M3

Here is a computer that does show up:
chris@chris-iMac:~$ avahi-browse -ta | grep michael

There are 2 differences (that I think are significant) between my laptop
and the computers showing up. My laptop is only connected over wifi. My
laptop is only showing up as IPv6 (presumably because of the wifi
network).
