Bug Description

The process unity-settings-deamon/unity-fallback-mount-helper does not always fail instantly, but sometimes first after that the phone(android Oneplus One) is plugged to the computer(lenovo z710 ubuntu 15.10 64 bit, unity 7.3.2+15.10.20151016-0ubuntu1).

However when it fails it seams to be trapped in a never ending loop: trying to mount the phone → failing → producing a new error information windows → repeat. New errors is reported at a frequency between ~0.5 s to 10 s. The unity-fallback-mount-helper slowly eats more and more memory as the window count rises. But the main issue is the random and visual disturbances caused by the never ending appearance of new info windows.
