I've suffered the same issue. Presumably, because you've entered your sudo password to open this dialogue, it's displaying /root rather than /home/[username]

the command:

sudo nautilus

produces the same result (as expected and desired).

Does this bug affect other applications that require sudo privileges to run? Even if it doesn't it's a little annoying.
