When you say 'manually did sensor detection', do you mean that you ran
sensors-detect, and loaded the kernel modules that it suggested you
load?

I'm not sure how to fix this other than to note that sensor modules must
be loaded in the package's README.Debian file. To fix this bug properly
would require the lm-sensors project to work out some way of integrating
their sensors-detect script with the kernel uevent/hotplugging system.
