Isn't WOL fun?  I've wasted many days on WOL related problems.
At least you know the board hardware really suports it, unlike the
infamous Tyan S2466, since you have a positive control from XP.
My last foray into this turned up a bug in the nvidia driver
where it was writing it's own MAC into the NIC register backwards.
The other trick is that you have to be sure that when the system
shuts down it goes to the right power state.  That's where Ubuntu
might be biting you.

See if anything in these links helps:

I think that may be normal for this card.
