I am having the exact same problem as described above, the only difference is that I'm using 32 bits architecture instead.
I have seen this behavior on the Ubuntu 10.04 RC AND the current final release. At this point it is very clear it is a general bug regardless of architecture.
I'm looking for a work around; if I find something I'll post it.
