rtl8723bs seems to have issues with 802.11w (Protected Management Frames) #19

My Hi10pro recently stopped connecting to one of my APs. Turns out the manufacturer had enabled PMF in an OTA update. My other devices have no problem with this and it appears that not supporting 802.11w outright should just fall back to standard management frames. However, it seems that the rtl8723bs (hw/fw/driver?) does implement 802.11w but has some kind of implementation bug that causes the connection attempt to fail.

Can anyone else report any experience related to this?
