[Bug 907311] [NEW] Not exiting properly? "An instance of Brasero is already running, exiting"

[Martin Brook]

Public bug reported:

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).
