The OP already stated (see above) that he saw this directly after a
reboot.

That's still a possibility, which is why multiple people have mentioned

No, and the OP seems to know this.  But it can't hurt to know what's
changed--it could be helpful information if the change turns out to

never know--something already stopped working because of it.)
