Had you been working with files from a removable media (opened from / saved to) last time, and this meia (e.g. USB stick) is no longer present on your system?

1) The MRU list (managed by GTK+ itself in 'recently-used.xbel' and shared with other GTK+-based applications, e.g. GIMP) is checked for the presence of related bookmarked files, and entries not found on the current system are omitted from the sub-menu in Inkscape. This check can trigger an attempt to access to a no longer present removable media.

2) Inkscape's file dialogs remember the last used locations (directories) and try to open them the next time used, and could also trigger an attempt to access a no longer present removable media.
