Then there is something happening in ath9k or your AP which prevents
ath9k from receiving beacons. Try pinging your AP with 100 ms
interval. Do you see anything happening in 120 s intervals?

If ath9k can't receive beacons in a 120 s interval, I would expect to
see delays also in the data path at the same time.
