Soft-Blocking and unblocking works as expected, but the Wireless-LED stays on, but I didn't turn off Bluetooth, so that it makes sense when it stays on.

After boot it says "Hard blocked: yes" - but the hardware switch should not block the device as it is in position "((([])))" and i didn't change it when suspending and waking up after which it was working.
