Apologies for the delay on this, I've been travelling. Thanks Chris
others for following up. We've locally cherry-picked this patch and
confirmed it fixes our issue, happy to test again with an official deb
if someone can point me at that.
Local reproduction instructions:
- Install Ubuntu
Just chiming in here, I contacted Rodrigo off-list and was verging
towards that same patch. More below.
I suspect there's two issues here with very similar symptoms. In
particular post #8 which mentions people reporting that 3.14 improves
the situation.
