There are a few bugs regarding this issue, for example: 472938, 476992 and 
477214. If I understand things correctly, all installed modules are enabled, 
but they're loaded "on-demand" (I guess this means the first time they're 
used, but I'm not sure). The way suggested in one of these bugs to have a 
working autocompletion is to source /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion 
from you .bashrc file.
