I'm still not completely sure what's going on but if I turn off acpi support in 
the kernel I no longer have this issue. I guess there's some sort of unexpected 
IRQ interaction. Strangely setting acpi=noirq doesn't solve the problem so maybe 
it's related to interrupts that ACPI is throwing up. It may just be related to 
the configuration of my laptop (Acer 8104).

Cheers,
Charles
