That does not sound like a hostapd issue, so this mailing list is not
really the best place for this. Anyway, I have AR9462 on my main desktop
and it works fine for me.. It is not clear what you mean by "not sending
my ssid", though.

Taken into account those "no IR" lines for other channels in this range,
I'd recommend starting testing on the 2.4 GHz band first to make sure
this is not caused by regulatory constraints.
