First, I am surprised and pleased that ASRock is still issuing firmware
updates for such an old motherboard. There was an update issued weeks
before I opened this bug report.
Firmware updated from 2.50 to 2.60. The stated fix in the firmware
update has nothing to do with this bug - but the stated improvements are
often wildly incomplete.

*A* bug still exists, but it is not what I thought it was.
The wakealarm is not being cleared when 16.04 starts. It is being
cleared when 14.04 (and others) stop. "shutdown" preserves wakealarm
(hence my MthyTV setup is working well) but "reboot", and I suspect
"poweroff" clear the wakealarm, causing the apparent problem in 16.04
when I rebooted to test the new release. I suspect that "hpet" was just
a co-incidence.
This bug report needs to be renamed, I'm just not sure what to.
