Bug Description

Gutsy all updated to 16/03/08.
Nautilus 1:2.20.0-0ubuntu7.1

Sometimes when I arrange some music files in the filesystem and in my iAudio F2 portable mp3 player, copy and delete, play with vlc, mplayer, banshee etc... suddenly I can open no more files.
I can't even see them in their folder.
I get this message: "too many open files".
Looks like I run out of file descriptors.
After a logout everything is OK again.

I tried two things:
1. ls /proc/$(pidof nautilus)/fd -l //which shows the pipes
2. ps uf -e | cat //which shows nothing

The output of the commands is attached.
Thank you.
