To be able to answer that one would need to know exactly what is in the
initramfs. And unfortunately all distros are different and I'm not
particularly familiar with Ubuntu.
Maybe if you
mkdir /tmp/initrd
cd /tmp/initrd
zcat /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-amd64 | cpio -idv
and then have a look around and particularly report etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf
and anything else that might be interesting.
If the mdadm.conf in the initrd is the same as in /etc/mdadm, then it
*should* work.
