Home folders not working in Intrepid places menu after upgrade

Bug Description

Upgrading to Intrepid from Hardy renders the places menu unstable with /home partition - the top band of icons from Home folder down to Video icon on the Places menu do not function correctly.

Upon clicking any of the 5 locations user is returned with a Brassero error message, for example

"Unable to create CD/DVD The file '/home/user/Documents' is not a valid disc image."

Behind this error message is what looks to be the final stage of compiling a new CD where you can name CD and enter write speeds etc

Also the 5 icons in question will not change icons style with the rest of the system, unable to change icons from original GNOME style to any other.
