[Bug 802272] [NEW] WLAN cannot be enabled by hardware switch after suspend

[Theo Band]

Public bug reported:

I disable WLAN with the laptop switch. Then I suspend en wake-up. Now I
use the laptop switch again to enable WLAN again. This does not work (no
WLAN). I expect WLAN to toggle when using the hardware switch on the
laptop.

It turns out that there is a software bit "Enable Wireless". I toggle
this radio button (enable) it, WLAN works again. But I have never
disabled WLAN by this software button.
