Can't drag & dropping files from HDD to USB key: Nautilus claims the key is read-only

When dragging and dropping files from my local disk to a connected USB key, Nautilus claims that the key is read-only. Copying the same files via the command line works.

Steps to reproduce:
- Plug in a USB key that has space on it and that is not write protected
- Drag and drop a file from an another device to the key in Nautilus

Expected result: the file is copied

Actual result: Nautilus shows an error window that claims the key is read only (see screen shot)

Workaround: copy the files via the command line
