I suggest you report a bug. Zesty is not ready and not stable

This is why it's called a "prerelease". If you want a stable OS that works as expected I suggest you wipe the install off and do a clean install of Xenial. Xenial is LTS and supported til April 2021. Zesty is only supported until January 2018
