So what you're saying here is that NM works with softmac, but doesn't
work with mac80211?

Hmm; any idea why that happens?  Can we figure out more about the
association process inside the driver?  If it works with wpa_supplicant,
can you increase the debugging output of wpa_supplicant in the NM
sources in nm-device-802-11-wireless.c in supplicant_exec() by adding
another argument to argv with the value '-ddd'?

Thanks!
