All, this bug affects me, however I have a solution. (with help from the team over at bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1436940) as it looks like support is in 4.5 kernel.
Courtesy of Miles Krell: 1) Install kernel 4.5. There's a guide at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds. 2) Assuming you downloaded the firmware as explained in the above guide, you have to rename just one file like this: cd /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA9377/hw1.0/ sudo mv firmware-5.bin_WLAN.TF.1.0-00267-1 firmware-5.bin 3) Reboot your computer. Run "sudo lshw -C network" to see if the card is recognized. 4) If it still isn't working, run "uname -r" to make sure you're running kernel 4.5. I'm a newbie and the above worked for me. I was pulling my hair out!
