The above system information is from a 16.10 machine (which is end-of-life), but you report that the problem exists in 16.04.

Please log a new bug with details from the 16.04 machine affected.

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

Oh, sorry. I can see that 16.04 is a typo. In that case...

Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu.
Ubuntu 16.10 (yakkety) reached end-of-life on July 20, 2017.
