Using wireshark (airtool), I can see that hostapd is sending the authentication request OTA. On the wpa_supplicant machine, I cannot see any nl80211 debug messages showing that any management frames have been received. (but I can see that it has registered for the correct frame types).

But do you know that the WLAN driver on the devices support offchannel
TX operation while in AP mode? Have you used a wireless sniffer to
verify whether the Public Action frame is actually transmitted on the
expected channel (2412 MHz in this case)?

That grepping removes the most relevant lines for this, i.e., what
happens with the nl80211 commands to send out the DPP Public Action
frame. Anyway, some drivers might lie about the TX status, so a wireless
sniffer would be more robust way of checking what exactly happened when
working with drivers that have not yet been confirmed to work with DPP.
