I'm guessing otp.bin fails and use the default board file. Can you try
firmware 10.1.467.2-1? Just get the firmware here:

https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware/tree/master/10.1

And rename it to firmware-2.bin:

cp firmware-2.bin_10.1.467.2-1 /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA988X/hw2.0/firmware-2.bin

And reload ath10k.
