(Ubuntu 18.04 LTS) Can't switch off Airplane mode with physical switch

I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on an MSI GS65 Stealth 8RE . When the laptop gets out of sleep mode, air plane mode is on and Linux says it must be deactivated via a physical switch. The FN+F10 combination to turn it off works on Windows, but doesn't on Ubuntu. When I reboot, everything seems to be fine. So it's not too bad, but systematic and very annoying nonetheless. I have the usual rfkill output : ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ rfkill list all 0: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes
