I found the problem when I was writing the steps I did to reproduce it.
I did install the kernel, I did reboot, but I did not uninstall the lts
kernel I was using currently, nor did I run grub-mkconfig. Now that I
have done things the right way, it works as expected. Everything is
awesome again.

Thanks, and sorry for the false alarm.
