Qubes OS version:

Qubes Release 4.0-rc4 (release candidate)

Affected TemplateVMs:

dom0 / sys-net


Steps to reproduce the behavior:

On HP 1040 G3 laptop,
Press wifi enabling physical button (above the keyboard). Pressing the button does not enable / disable wifi, no effect whatsoever.

Expected behavior:

Pressing wifi buttom once - enables wifi, pressing wifi button again disables wifi. Toggle button.

Actual behavior:

Pressing physical wifi button doesn't bring any effect. wifi is always on/enabled.

General notes:

I could disable wifi by removing wifi module from the kernel

sudo rmmod iwlmvm
sudo rmmod iwlwifi

After that no wifi networks are available for connection, wifi adapter doesn't receive signal.
