After digging a little

  1. Install the desired firmware
  2. modprobe --remove ath9k_htc ath9k_common ath9k_hw ath mac80211 cfg80211
  3. Trigger the driver reload as usbreset doesn't do anything 
    sudo sh -c "echo 0 > /sys/bus/usb/devices/2-1/authorized"
sudo sh -c "echo 1 > /sys/bus/usb/devices/2-1/authorized"

    See the tips here

  4. Voilà
