In order to run apport while my system was manifesting the problem, I
enabled polling again, updated init, and rebooted, then verified the
module was enabled, using 'sudo cat
/sys/module/drm_kms_helper/parameters/poll' (which echoed 'Y').
However, the system is no longer manifesting the same problematic
behavior.
Perhaps it was some other package which has since been updated. I'll
leave polling enabled and see if I run into the same issue again -- but
it was pretty distinctly annoying, and isn't a noticeable problem now.
Also of note:
When I run apport-collect 1008027 as requested:
$ apport-collect 1008027
No packages found matching linux.

(apport window freezes with cycling activity indicator after asking for
password twice)
..but I suppose that's an apport error.
