This is not a big problem for me because I can just reboot using the advanced power monitor and the problem goes away. But please let me know if there is anything I can do to troubleshoot the problem. Also, if I figure out any pattern for what triggers the behavior I will of course post here.
If it happens just after booting, the problem is in MCE, a closed source component, so we can't fix it (we tried, a lot).
Workaround is to restart mce from xterm (/etc/init.d/mce restart)
