Please can you clarify what you're doing, because the sbverify you show
below isn't an externally built kernel, it must be an Ubuntu kernel to
have an ubuntu signature on it, or is that ubuntu certificate one you
created?

Is your problem that this kernel with the dual signature won't boot
even though the Ubuntu key should be in shim/mok, or that you have
another kernel you didn't attach the sbverify output for that won't
boot?
