Bug Description

This is in inkscape 0.44-1ubuntu1 on Edgy when trying to save a file.
libgtk2.0-common and libgtk2.0-bin at version 2.10.4-0ubuntu2.

When saving a file for the first time in a session, I always encounter the message "error accessing 'file:///home/oem/drawing.svg': File not found".

The current folder is the users home directory. In this instance, the current user is "oem".

So to reproduce:
* Using Edgy
* Open Inkscape
* Add at least one element (otherwise you wont be able to save it)
* Click save (in menu or toolbar, doesn't matter)

Expected Results:
* Blank save box.

Produced Results
* Message "error accessing 'file:///home/oem/drawing.svg': File not found".

If you then create a new document in the same inkscape instance, and then hit save, you will not observe it again until you actually exit inkscape and start it again.
