Same problem here, also using ath9k
This happened to me after my connection to the AP was lost, while firefox was loading a website. I had no problems with my machine, it just kept running normally.
[OffTopic] BTW ath9k is a very bad driver, I've had many problems trying to do the same things I was doing with my old ralink rt73 (USB), and some of them don't even work.
Sorry for my bad english, it is not my native language.
