I have the same problem. If I update to 8.10 then the problem is fixed. But then I have a problem with Mythtv volume control. So at the moment I am stuck on 8.04.
To fix my problem I start with a new install.
Then
sudo umount /home/yourhome/.gvfs
sudo rmdir /home/yourhome/.gvfs
sudo apt-get remove gvfs-fuse
Restart and then update your system and add your other applications
