Hi,
Yes, WiFi was also failing for me.  The workaround solves the WiFi

Good luck.

Title:
  Keyboard and Mouse don't work with latest Kernel

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  1)
  Description:	Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
  Release:	14.04

  2) Linux / The kernel

  3) I expected my usb devices to work on the login page

  4) They don't work :)

  ...

  Upon the upgrade to kernel 3.13.0-48-generic my USB devices don't
  work, so when I did a normal launch of my computer, I could not sign
  into it since my usb devices were not working.

  I was able to sign and and use my computer as normal when I revert to
  kernel 3.13.0-46-generic.
