the problem is being addressed upstream (kernel.org, see please http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11721) so i think that in few days it is solved there and ubuntu developpers will follow through.
yesterday i was given a patch to apply to the kernel source and after having compiled the 2.6.27.2 kernel the problem had disappeared, so either you wait a few days or you can compile yourself in order to test the patch in your environment (it would be useful, i think).
if you want to follow this second option, download the kernel source http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.27.2.tar.bz2 , untar it, apply the patch i attach to this message and compile and install the new kernel.

let me know if the new kernel solves your issue.
i assume you know how to patch and compile a kernel, if not let me know.
