** Description changed:

+ 
+ [Impact]
+ 
+  * When booting to "Safe Graphics" mode the system startup sound would
+    sometimes not be played
+ 
+  * This is an accessibility issue as the system startup sound is meant to
+    indicate that Ubiquity is ready
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+  * Boot an installer image to Safe Graphics mode and listen for the
+ sound
+ 
+  * You can optionally use `systemctl status sound.target` to monitor when the
+    sound should be played. This should occur shortly after sound.target 
becomes
+    active
+ 
+ [Where problems could occur]
+ 
+  * If sound.target never comes up, the system ready sound will not be played.
+    This could be caused by a missing or broken sound card
+ 
+ [Other Info]
+ 
+  * It is expected behavior that the sound target may take longer to become 
active
+    when nomodeset is on the kernel command line. This is because nomodeset 
prevents
+    the kernel from pre-loading audio drivers.
+ 
+  * This problem seems to be more prevalent with Intel sound cards
+ 
+ [Original Description]
+ 
  Ubuntu Groovy Desktop
