Pavel Roskin reported some issues with using AP mode without
nohwcrypt=1.  Most likely this is similar to the problem fixed
some time ago in ath9k by 3f53dd64f192450cb331c0fecfc26ca952fb242f,
"ath9k: Fix hw crypto configuration for TKIP in AP mode."

That only affects TKIP but it's easiest to just disable that and
WEP too until we get a proper fix in.
