Public bug reported: If the system has never mounted a removable device then /media/$USER does not exist which causes mediascanner to fail it's watch with this error:
Mount directory does not exist if something is mounted after this, then it just doesn't notice it. starting mediascanner after /media/$USER is created allows everything to work.
