Well, if NetworkManager says it has a key, it probably has one. I don't know
where it has it got from. Anyway, the log shows that connection attempts with
"ap_scan 2" fail while "ap_scan 1" succeeds. As I wrote in comment 3, you need
to specify all security specific connection settings to get ap_scan 2 working
(that means, WPA protocol and pairwise and group ciphers). You can test it by
selecting "connect to other network" and fill in the details. For ap_scan 1
this is not needed, that the reason why it works then. I think NetworkManager
could be improved here: First, it is not comprehensible why NM uses "ap_scan 2"
in the first place for a non-hidden network. Second, if it really has to set
"ap_scan 2", it has to tell wpa_supplicant values for proto, pairwise, and
group. Otherwise the driver may be unable to determine the correct AP.
