see also #38574. It appears that the current 2.6.15 kernel is causing the problems. There have been success stories after upgrading to 2.6.17.1, and one poster suggested a workaround is to start gpilotd a second or two after initiating the sync. (open a terminal, do 'killall gpilotd', start the sync, wait, then do '/usr/libexec/gpilotd' (sorry, that path might be wrong on Ubuntu, try 'locate gpilotd' if it isn't there).
