Hi Alexander,
     In the initially-docked case, the failure is caused by an issue in
the intel sound card driver. Seems something is wrong with reference
count management and it never returns to zero on driver detach.
Could you please help to disable the Intel sound card driver and try
again?

I'm not familiar with Intel HDA driver,  so please help to fire another
bug for it.

Regards!
Gerry
