"but we
probably don't need to try any harder tracking down the history of the
Armbian kernel releases here in an Ubuntu bug report..."

Agreed, so the following is just out of interest...
re kernel versions, sorry for the confusion, it looks like the reboot I did 
today moved me up another kernel release without me realising, so I was on .111 
at the beginning of the day and .113 at the end. No idea what might have been 
there back when things were working, but as you say, it's not so important.

lsb_release -a doesn't mention armbian:

$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS

But the login message does:

Welcome to Ubuntu Xenial with Armbian Linux 4.14.133-odroidxu4

And I should probably stop spamming this bug report with irrelevant
noise now. It seems like the problem is well understood, it's a shame
there isn't a simpler way of choosing between the uas and usb-storage
drivers, but at least it can be done.

Many thanks for all the help.
