rEFInd Boot Manager stopped working after installing Ubuntu 17- MacBook Pro Dual Boot

I just installed Ubuntu 17 on my mid-2012 MacBook Pro to dual boot with MacOS X. I'm new to Ubuntu. During installation I used rEFInd as a boot manager and it worked perfectly while testing Ubuntu on my computer, but after installing Ubuntu, rEFInd no longer works. I now have to use the option key to choose which OS to boot, and if I don't hold down the option key at startup, the computer automatically boots Ubuntu. Any help to get rEFInd working again as my boot manager would be appreciated.

I had the same issue as you.
Resolved it by changing BootOrder using efibootmgr from within Ubuntu.
Before
# sudo efibootmgr
BootCurrent: 0000
Timeout: 5 seconds
BootOrder: 0000,0080
Boot0000* ubuntu
Boot0080* Mac OS X
Boot0081* Recovery OS
Boot0082*
BootFFFF*
Change order
# sudo efibootmgr -o 0080,0000
After
# sudo efibootmgr
BootCurrent: 0080
Timeout: 5 seconds
BootOrder: 0080,0000
Boot0000* ubuntu
Boot0080* Mac OS X
Boot0081* Recovery OS
Boot0082*
BootFFFF*

I experienced this. What worked for me was to re install rEFInd every time I installed a new OS. You may do so by launching a terminal inside the recovery mode and navigating to the rEFInd folder (usually on an external dev) where the installation file is, then you can run the installation file. Good luck.
