Kernelshark segmentation fault on capture

Question

I am trying to run kernelshark in a virtual machine, Ubuntu 16.10 with an rt kernel (4.8.15).
If I try to capture without sudo I get a popup message saying that there are "no events or plugins found".
If I try to capture with sudo I get a segmentation fault.
I've tried to run kernelshark and to use the capture function on a non-rt kernel as well, yet the result is the same.
Is there any way to workaround this? Can someone recommend a visualizer similar to kernelshark ?

Apparently there are some issues with ubuntu 16.10.
After switching over to ubuntu 16.04 everything worked perfectly.
