I would suggest that you try with a Jessie-based Tails nightly build:


http://nightly.tails.boum.org/build_Tails_ISO_feature-jessie/builds/lastSuccessfulBuild/archive/build-artifacts/

Obviously, since this is not a stable release, do so only for testing
purposes. Please report your results back here!

Cheers!
