Forgot to include /etc/network/interfaces:

auto wlp2s0
iface wlp2s0 inet dhcp
	wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
	wpa-debug-level 1
	wpa-logfile /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log

When both -f and -s are present, the logfile is opened but never written to and debug output instead goes to syslog.
