I found out how to disable mount. At least, hunar doesn't pop up with file display.
I then restarted system.
Calibre cannot see device.

Ran Calibre in debug mode, obtained log.
[code]
Using calibre Qt style: True
libusb_claim_interface() reports device is busy, likely in use by GVFS or KDE] MTP device handling already LIBMTP PANIC: Unable to initialize device

Device 0 (VID=1949 and PID=05e1) is a Amazon Kindle Fire 10 Plus.[/spoiler]

If someone could 'explain like I was 5', I would appreciate it.
Okay. Simple answer is that you are still getting the same error. You have a process that is mounting your Fire which prevents calibre from connecting to your Fire.

There are quite a few threads on Mobileread and elsewhere. Some samples are Calibre accessing MTP device under KDE5 solution and How do I disable automount for removable devices in Hardy??.
