Thank you for your testing and great that it is working for you. This patch I have uploaded to Precise and proposed as an SRU for Oneiric, as a fix for bug 887094 and bug 872483. Probably this bug is a duplicate of one of these (but I do not know which one). Please subscribe to bug 887094 to get the announcement of the proposed package and then test it to verify it for getting an official Oneiric update.
