In my experience only dark roasts have the static electricity problem, and since I prefer very lightly roasted beans this doesn't usually come up. But it is truly very annoying.
Also remember, one man's "light roast" is another's dark roast. I consider light something like nordic (and lighter) - what others consider light I would put well past "medium" but before "oily" - I consider "dark" right before beans start to get oily.
