Confirming, seeing it here too. Because of opening /media, removable stuff like usb drives does not get shown, contrary to when the proper location media:/ is opened.

Thanks for the report, but this is by design (see the duplicate bug for more info).

But why do you introduce something that breaks functionality in a stable release? I see why you'd want to get rid of media:/ but right now it seriously breaks things (like opening audiocds in konqueror).

This also means that you cannot mount a floppy disk through /media. Very bad.
