Public bug reported: I get this error from time to time. To this day, I could not figure out which action leads to the problem. I just get notified about the error (see screen shot) but besides that I do not notice any negative effects. My system still runs smoothly even if the error appears.
The error appears in the middle of a session most of the time. In rare cases it appears directly after suspend/resume. I believe it does not appear after a clean boot, but I'm not so sure about that. I have the impression that there might be a side effect of suspend/resume which makes this error more likely to happen. I have continouosly let ubuntu's error reporting proceed, but so far nothing has improved for months. I also found some issues via launchpad which are somehow similar, but either classified as duplicates or closed because of missing feedback. However, this particular error still happens on up-to-date ubuntu 16.04.
