Bug Description
Fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on VirtualBox 5.0.32. From first login, I do apt-get update/upgrade and then 'sudo snap install hello-world' resulting in the following error:

error: cannot perform the following tasks:
- Make snap "ubuntu-core" available to the system (no state entry for key)
- Mount snap "hello-world" (cannot find snap declaration for "hello-world": assertion not found)
Happens consistently in both Ubuntu Desktop 16.04 (64 bit) and Mate Desktop 16.04 (64 bit). Does not happen in Mate Desktop 16.10.

After that, ubuntu-core snap is installed but inoperable. Nothing else works:
stuartm@ snapcraftros: ~$ sudo snap install ubuntu-core snapcraftros: ~$ sudo snap install hello-world
[sudo] password for stuartm:
error: snap "ubuntu-core" is already installed
