Bug Description
Ok so this is how what is happening,
When I open Noise all of my music is visible. When I go to click on a track all of the tracks suddenly have the red circle with a line through it. This means it is inaccessible I presume? When I click to rescan music folders it says it can't find the music folder please make sure it is mounted. When I view my music through the file browser and launch noise that way it plays the music fine but won't go on to play anything else through the Noise gui.
Now, my music folder is on a separate partition. It has been working until today. Something that I changed yesterday, but hadn't listened to music since, was that I now have the partition auto-mounted on boot up. This is the only reason I can think of for the change.

Here are the logs on what happens when I attempt to load my music database.
Noise caps to 100% CPU usage during the entire thing. At 17:14:08, the GUI loads, but it is unresponsive. I have attached the log in the attachment.
I began to suspect it was my database pointing to my external drive for music. I deleted my Noise database at .local/share/Noise, and I could get the GUI to load and be responsive. I still cannot import any music from an external drive, however. A log from this run is also attached.
I have also attached the log from when I moved my music folder to my system drive. The music loaded and played correctly.
All logs are in the same .txt file and are designated by the preface ## CASE: before each one.
