Hi chris, aspm[1] is there to save power in normal use whenever activity on the bus is low enough. AFAIR an example saving of 0.8W has been given for one PCIe bus. AFAIK the PCIe bus is powered off completely during sleep (S3 state). So you should loose work time on battery, but not sleep time.
A possible next step to try could be switching off aspm just before suspending as part off the suspend process and reenable it after resume. One thing that would be helpful would be to run "apport-cli -u 689004" on the command line to get more detailed information about your system into this report. This will help answer the question which systems exactly are plagued by that bug so that it might be possible to find an out of the box solution for those systems for ubuntu 11.04 "natty".
