Bug Description

Basero 3.2.0 as it installs from the ISO. Synaptic says installed version is 3.2.0-0ubuntu6

Using either ubuntu studio 10.04 or 12.04(alpha dec19) if brasero is started by a right click on a toc file (or maybe a cue file) it opens a dialogue to burn a cd from. I can cancel or burn a cd, but in either case ps x still shows brasero running after the dialogue has gone when the application has completed it's task successfully. trying to burn a cd from a second toc file or even open brasero from the main menu then fails until brasero has been killed (kill pid). This is not a problem when opening an audio file (wav, ogg etc.) as the main brasero window is opened. I think that because the burn dialogue normally would not exit brasero it doesn't exit here either, however, the main window is not shown to exit from.

This is important to UbuntuStudio because the main DAW (Ardour) puts out toc files as a finished product and brasero is needed (since the loss of gcdmaster) to actually print the file to CD. So this should be listed as a ubuntu studio bug as well.

Still happens on Ubuntu 12.04 with Brasero 3.4.1, when opening ISOs by context menu.
Note that Brasero closes correctly if the application is called normally.

I'm affected too in a fully updated Ubuntu 12.04. After the burn process completed, brasero still exists in memory even though there are no open windows. I have to terminate it to be able to start it again.

This is also the case for me on my 12.04 32-bit system but *only* if I double-click on an ISO and launch Brasero that way. If I open Brasero *first*, tell it I want to burn an image, and then choose the ISO, Brasero closes as expected when I'm finished.
