I was able to fix this on Ubuntu 18.04 (bionic), which comes with
libmtp-common=1.1.13 by installing a newer version of libmtp 1.1.16.
Now Ubuntu transfers huge numbers of songs between my phone and laptop
by simply drag-and-drop in Nautilus.


    sudo apt install build-essential pkg-config wget libusb-1.0-0-dev libusb-dev

    wget 
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/libmtp/libmtp/1.1.16/libmtp-1.1.16.tar.gz
    tar xzf libmtp-1.1.16.tar.gz
    cd libmtp-1.1.16

    ./configure
    make
    sudo make install


I didn't even have to uninstall the old version, and also no need for 
android-file-transfer or jmtpfs.
