So did I, without problems.

It was the first time I observed it, with a smartphone connection over
USB which was pretty slow.

Yes, that's what I tried to says in my assumption. Looks like it started
doing so before copying was complete.

Then maybe you have disabled the automatic update in the DK settings?

This used to work fine for me, too. E.g., if I just moved an existing
folder into the DK album tree then DK detected the folder and images
automatically, without problems.
