Hi. I'm posting this to complete the story for the archives. My problem went away after I restarted. I guess that would have been a reasonable thing to try first. The updates I installed via the Ubuntu update manager required a restart. Maybe I failed to select real-time mode at the boot menu. I should learn how to make real-time mode the default in that menu. Sorry for the noise. Thanks for your help.
