[Bug 55401] Files & folders don't always show up with Edgy Nautilus

[Paul Nolan]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

This problem seems to work in two ways:

Firstly, creating a folder or file appears to do nothing. The folder/file has actually been created, it's just invisible. Pressing Ctrl+H makes it appear.
Secondly, certain files and folders keep disappearing from my home folder (I've noticed this with my 'Videos' folder mostly). Again, Ctrl+H makes it reappear.

Pressing Ctrl+H to re-hide hidden files doesn't make the files/folders
disappear again (so it looks like Nautilus is having a problem
refreshing itself).

It occurs with both the spatial and the browser interfaces.

** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)

- If it matters, I'm using the spatial interface (I don't know if the
- problem is there in the browser one)
