Bug Description

I have 3 volumes on the hard disk that are not automatically mounted at startup. They are, of course, mounted on demand from the sidebar in nautilus.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Unlock all volume launcher icons
2. Install gparted and start it
3. Observe that the volumes disappear from the sidebar in nautilus while gparted is open (as if gparted takes ownership of them and deny access to them from outside)
4. Close gparted

What happens:

1. The volume icons appear on the launcher and get locked by themselves
2. The volumes show up again in the sidebar in nautilus

What should happen:

1. The volume icons should stay unlocked from the launcher
2. The volumes should not disappear from the sidebar in nautilus

When gparted releases the volumes, they get locked on the launcher and override the previous configuration.
