It looks like you're running a custom kernel.  The firmware provided with
the Ubuntu kernel is in /lib/firmware/<kernel version>, and that's where
initramfs-tools looks for it.  Perhaps your firmware is in a different
place?

Your script copies all of /lib/firmware, while the one in the fixed
initramfs-tools copies only the firmware shipped with our kernel, so that
seems likely to be the cause of your problem.

Seems worth a look.
