I have to say this should be a driver issue.
Now I'm using ArchLinux and before I upgrade the Nvidia driver to 169.12,
the problem exists in the same way.
But when I upgraded the driver two days ago, I find everything is working
well now.
Cause I don't have another Ubuntu box with nvidia card, can you try to
verify this in Ubuntu+Nvidia driver 169.12.
