MATLAB Segmentation Violation - Bug report workaround doesn't help

I'm running MATLAB R2016a on ubuntu 16.04 and I get the segmentation violation problem that many others have had. The workaround given here: https://www.mathworks.com/support/bugreports/1297894 doesn't seem to work for me. Any suggestions on how to get around this bug?

There is a known R2016a NVIDIA problem that has a different symptom, but it might be worth checking out whether you are using one of the problematic driver versions; see http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/285182-why-does-matlab-crash-on-linux-with-the-error-matlab-has-encountered-an-internal-problem-and-needs
