Ubuntu issue unable to show contents of the folder - Ubuntu Forums

Had a strange issue that just started with my Archos.
When attaching the USB connection to update my podcast subscriptions, it would give an error "Failed to get file list: -8: Fixed limit exceeded". A few searches on the Ubunutu forums I found the below thread which found a workaround to start Rhtymbox before connecting the media player. Hope this bug gets fixed soon, but need a note here to check back if I get this issue again.

[all variants] unable to show contents of the folder - Ubuntu Forums: "I am able to open it in Rhythmbox now. It only works if I open Rhythmbox first, and then attach the mp3 player. Between the gphoto thing and Rhythmbox all folders are usable now."
