Hi Christopher,
I've tried the available pre-built packages but there are graps between the binaries and upstream. The early 3.16.0 kernels work for me but with no graphics acceleration, which I think is why they don't crash. It looks like the later builds switch acceleration back on and thats when the problems occur.

So I think the *real* problem must lie somewhere between 3.13.0-44 and the version of the kernel before 3.16.0-23 that still had graphics enabled.

Here are the results I've come up with so far:
linux-image-3.13.0-44 (trusty) - OK
linux-image-3.13.0-44 (trusty) - OK
linux-image-3.16.0-23 - Doesn't crash but seems to be using framebuffer video + no sound
linux-image-3.16.0-28 - Doesn't crash but seems to be using framebuffer video + no sound
linux-image-3.16.0-33 - accelerated graphics working but crashes
linux-image-4.0.0-rc6 - seems mostly working but crashes on shutdown (observed twice)
