Apologies for my last reply not making it through the mailing lists, I
sent it from my phone and it was automatically formatted in HTML and
not Plain Text.

The ultimate goal is to use an Android device to communicate with my
custom device being the Access Point.  The laptop is easier to debug
(at the moment) than an Android device.  I'm currently using a Samsung
S4 running 4.4.4 and it was not able to complete the authentication
step either.  This is when I turned to using the laptop.  Any idea
what version of the wpa_supplicant is running on Kit Kat?
