Did this issue occur in a previous version of Ubuntu, or is this a new
issue? -----> This issue occurred with the latest stable release and
updated version of Ubuntu 14.04. It looks like this has been an issue in
previous version of Ubuntu from looking at other bug reports.

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? ----->
unfortunately, I had to return the laptop and exchange for a new one
because I couldn't wait. I will not be able to test.
