I'm not sure if this is the same issue, but here's what I had.
I had the following entry in /etc/fstab:
UUID=B634D59634D55A47 /media/VIDEO ntfs rw,users 0 2
Now apparently ntfs-3g ignores some mount options, since in /etc/mtab it was displayed like this:
/dev/sdb1 /media/VIDEO fuseblk rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096 0 0
And I had two entries in the Places menu: one for the fstab entry, another one for mtab. After I changed the fstab entry to this one:
UUID=B634D59634D55A47 /media/VIDEO ntfs rw,allow_other 0 2
