Bug Description

When a blank DVD is inserted and mounted, it shows up twice on the desktop.The blank DVD icons initially are named 'Blank CD/DVD' but if you move the pointer over an icon it will change its name to 'CD/DVD Creator'. PCManFM displays only one instance of Blank DVD. I would expect only one icon for each blank DVD to show up on the desktop, not two icons each. This behavior occurs whether the blank DVD is inserted either before or after boot-up. I believe this may be a regression from an earlier similar bug, but have not found the earlier bug. I am using a Verbatim Inkjet Printable DVD+R, white, hub printable, capacity 4.7 BG, P/N 94917. Computer is a System76 Serval Pro 7 running Lubuntu 18.04 64-bit wuth current updates.

I found the bug I was thinking of (Bug 1816198) which although filed under 'pcmanfm' package appears to have the same symptoms and possibly the same cause. I think this may be a duplicate, and seems to be confirmed.

This appears to be a bug with the app rendering the LXDE desktop. Is this pcmanfm?

Since Lubuntu 20.04 is the new LTS, which no longer supports 32-bit systems, I have changed all my machines over to MX Linux 21. If I remember correctly, Lubuntu 18.04 utilized pcmanfm.
