You'd see the link in Sessions if you have a view shortcut mounting
a drive letter. Looks like you're using the MVFS drive, rather than
mapping a drive to a particular view, so that's not an issue.
(If there's a conflict, the drive letters in Sessions override those in
the global namespace. Each logged in user gets their own session,
as does any service running as a user other than SYSTEM.)
Do you have the same user ID, group membership, etc. when logged
in via ssh as via the console?
