Need to figure this out in the driver; it could be a passphrase issue.
It could be driver bugs.  Add "-dddt" to the Exec= line
in /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/fi.epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant.service, reboot, and re-try the connection.  You should get a /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log that has detailed connection information.  You probably don't want to post that to a public list since it may contain sensitive information, but I'm happy to look at it and see what I can figure out.
