I know 2 persons on IRC which suffer from the same issue as you (non-0 SigBlk) and it seems like there is a connection to the proprietary nvidia graphics drivers. I have found a report here [0] that says the issue shows up starting with nvidia 331.20. Can you tell me what your nvidia version is?
When we have gained more confirmation, then I can reassign this bug to the nvidia package.
