Also, make sure you stop NetworkManager when you're doing the manual
connection.  With systemd, you need to 'systemctl mask NetworkManager'
and then 'systemctl stop NetworkManager' to prevent it from being D-Bus
activated too.

The reason I say this is because in your logs there are
locally-generated disconnections, and that happens when NetworkManager
is still running and hasn't been told to stop handling WiFi, and then
somebody runs another wpa_supplicant alongside.
