Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

Please could you check if this is the same issue as:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=751138
http://code.google.com/p/irqbalance/issues/detail?id=36

AIUI, restarting irqbalance should work around the problem if this is the case?

When you respond please change the bug status back to New.

Changed in irqbalance (Ubuntu):
