Bug Description

Precise 32-Bit up-to-date

What you expected to happen:
When clicking on startup applications > 'add' > 'browse' the upcoming nautilus
browse dialog should display the '/usr/bin' folder.

What happened instead:
The upcoming nautilus browse dialog displayed the 'Recently Used' folder. This
could be very confusing for average users and prevent them from being able to
add startup programs at all.
