Bug#883294: Problem appears to be solved on 4.16.0-2-amd64

[ael <law_ence.dev@ntlworld.com>]

First apologies again for delayed answers.

I am running testing which is up to date.

On kernel 4.16.0-2-amd64, with command line 
/boot/vmlinuz-4.16.0-2-amd64 root=UUID=43ae47ae-86fc-43a6-9661-dcf030179dc0 ro tsc=unstable init=/lib/sysvinit/init
the problem seems to be resolved.

I would close this bug, but it seems as if others may be seeing something similar,
so I leave it to the maintainers to decide whether to leave it open.
