Chris Yeun, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. While you do have different hardware under the hood as per your https://launchpadlibrarian.net/193661768/Lspci.txt , for now, let us mark this a duplicate of LP#1173681. It was most helpful for you to file this report as it gives triagers and developer the opportunity to ensure that the issue is resolved for all, versus just the original reporter.

Thank you for your understanding.
