Title:
  sftp freezes nautilus after standby / resume cycle

Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hello, I have been having this problem for at least six months. I
  often use the 'connect to server' > 'sftp://someone@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' in
  nautilus to transfer files to and from remote servers. It works great.
  The problem comes from suspending / resuming near the time of doing
  these actions. (I am about 90% sure)

  If the error occurrs, after resuming, nautilus will freeze, and I can
  end it, and then it will not re launch again. In terminal , the error
  it gives when trying to launch is. "Could not register the
  application: Timeout was reached" Launching a nautilus instance with
  sudo works as expected.

  I have determined that the error comes from the sftp daemon because I
  have found, through trial and error, that ending a specific SSH
  process will unfreeze / allow relaunching of nautilus almost instantly
  after it is killed.

  $ ps -aef | grep ssh >>

  paul      5731 20771  0 09:47 pts/26   00:00:00 /usr/bin/ssh
  -oForwardX11 no -oForwardAgent no -oPermitLocalCommand no
  -oClearAllForwardings yes -oProtocol 2
  -oNoHostAuthenticationForLocalhost yes -l ubuntu -s <URL CUT> sftp

  this is an example of that the process looks like that is causing the
  hang.

  This error occurs even if I make sure to close nautilus before putting
  the computer to sleep.

  *update*

  I also realize today that this bug is even bigger then I thought at
  first. I had been having an issue in the past where I would try to
  save files from programs such as gedit and as soon as I press ctrl+s
  gedit would just freeze and I had lost my work a few times. I just
  today found that instead of this being a gedit problem, it is a
  problem with this nautilus ssh connection, as engine the SSH process
  mentioned above also unfreezes the program. I assume similar problems
  with saving or opening from other programs may be related!
