Mike,
   I might have found a way to reproduce what you saw.

   If you Reconnect to a Terminated session that had a mounted share it 
will start a new session but there is a ghost mount in the new session 
from the previous terminated session.  This didn't happen on a suspended 
session only after I terminated a session then clicked on Reconnect.
