MythMediaDevice::ScanMediaType?() returns false if the mount is not available. It looks like there is some threading issue - delaying a while with sleep(1) makes it recurse and count file extensions.

Ensure mount is available before MythMediaDevice::ScanMediaType?(). Refs #10450

Seems to only be a problem on Mac OS X, so I put this here, instead of MythMediaDevice::ScanMediaType?().

sleep()ing is a bit of a hack, but should be harmless. Not sure when this started acting up - maybe 10.6?

This is a very old ticket and there have been some changes to the media monitor recently so I'm going to assume this is fixed.
