Bug Description

After mounting a CIFS share via GVFS, clicking on a LibreOffice document causes LibreOffice to open, get about halfway loaded, and then pop up this error: "General input/output error while accessing /run/user/1000/gvfs/smb-share:server=192.168.10.10,share=jon/General Tso's Chicken.odt"

Other machines running other distros do not have any such problems. Said file can be opened successfully if copied to the Documents folder or if LibreOffice is first started and then the document is loaded from within it. The error only appears when clicking on it from Files.

I get a similar error although strangely the same file opens fine (through Files) with other text editors e.g. Scratch or Geany.
