I already filed a bug (still no action!) over a week ago, thinking this might be a kernel modules problem, but it could be this... you're the developers.

In bug 1435793 you mention NetworkManager. So it's probably a dupe of bug 1382741.
Comment 2 Peter Gückel 2017-04-27 16:15:11 UTC 
Amalgamated with bug 1382741.
