Bug Description

Have several NFS volumes that I mount and unmount. Have always seen the volume ICON show up on the desktop and the nautilus shortcut panel but this is no longer occurring in 18.04. The mount is available. Have verified that the tweaks-ui setting is ON for mounted volumes. Believe this was ok in earlier daily builds.

I am experiencing the same problem on bionic.

My system is an upgrade from artful.

The NFS shares are mounted at:
/media/sharename

I don't know whether it is relevant, but I am still using the Unity 7 desktop on bionic.

The shortcuts of the NFS mounts were visible in nautilus on artful, where I was also using the Unity 7 desktop.
