What does "never" mean exactly? :) I.e. how long have you waited?

If it does continue after a few minutes, it sounds like the firmware
isn't available in the same place where the driver is loaded from, i.e.
either the driver is loaded from initrd but the firmware isn't available
there, or the driver is built into the kernel, but the firmware isn't
built into the kernel.
