[Andreas Hasenack (ahasenack)]

Thanks for filing this bug in Ubuntu.

This seems to be a duplicate of bug #1731502, where there was no network available when nmbd was restarted:

   Status: "nmbd: No local IPv4 non-loopback interfaces available, waiting for interface ..."

I suggest the following commands, after the network is available:

sudo apt update
sudo apt -f install
