I also have the same problem, and for me it was was working on Lucid 64 bit Ubuntu Desktop edition. It stopped working with the 64 bit Maverick beta.

Using a Compaq Presario CQ60-215DX laptop, no virtualized, just dual-booting with Windows 7.
I did not do a clean install of Maverick, just a dist-upgrade from Lucid.
