I was having this exact same problem a few weeks ago. With the latest (or second latest) update I pulled down, it stopped. Is your system fully up to date? I'm running Xubuntu 16.04.1 with the 4.4.0.57 kernel on an ASRock Z97 Pro4 mobo, i7-4790K with 16Gb RAM and the on-board video, i915 driver. Dunno if that's any help....
