@Seth You might have missed it (there's lots of text here, so it's more than ok :-) ) but I already had said in one comment here that it affects Artful as well (and Bionic, of course, but that is still in development). Pretty much it affects any distro using a kernel newer than or equal to 4.12.

@Seth I just confirmed that it does fix the bug. I forced the re-installation of version 1.157.14 and rebooted. I checked that the old firmware was loaded and that the files in the /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/ folder were indeed the ones that came with the old package. Then I let the bug
