Title:
  mediascanner fails to watch removable devices if /media/$USER doesn't
  exist when starting

Status in “mediascanner2” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  If the system has never mounted a removable device then /media/$USER
  does not exist which causes mediascanner to fail it's watch with this
  error:

  Mount directory does not exist

  if something is mounted after this, then it just doesn't notice it.

  starting mediascanner after /media/$USER is created allows everything
  to work.
