Hi Ben,

Yes, there is a known regression in 5.15.0-156-generic and its derivatives.

You can find more information on this Launchpad bug.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2126434

The fix is currently in -proposed, will be released shortly. If you
need a fix right now, I suggest installing 5.15.0-160-generic in
-proposed.

Thanks,
Matthew
