Are you using a distro kernel?
The 6.8.11 is Debian’s current Linux kernel in the suite *unstable/sid*
(*linux-image-6.8.11-amd64* 6.8.11-1).
Could you check if below patch merged in your kernel? if not can
you merge it and try again?

Paul, if you are feeling brave to try out an -rc this commit is in just
released v6.10-rc1.
Thank you. I haven’t found out yet, how to reproduce this. I’ll keep an
eye on it.
As the commit message says:
This results in timeout issue if the interrupt is not fired, due to
some unknown reasons.
There are reports from 2016 to 2021 with similar symptoms. These were
supposedly fixed with
`/usr/lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board-2.bin` [1][2]:
$ md5sum /usr/lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board.bin
/usr/lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board-2.bin

Kind regards,
