Not sure if this matters, but I noticed in my log files and in the OP log files that when the ath5k driver is loaded the wireless device registered the AR5414 model, yet we both have AR5212 model on our machines (at least from lspci). Not sure if that is significant.

From dmesg:
[ 44.418566] ath5k phy0: Atheros AR5414 chip found (MAC: 0xa3, PHY: 0x61)

From lspci:
03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5212 802.11abg NIC (rev 01)
