wpa_supplicant 0.7.2 dropping udp dhcp after WPA association on return of requests

[Kelly Hogan]

Hello,  Sorry if this is a re-post, Sent from a non-list email address previously.

We have been using wpa_supplicant to do wpa connections to standard APs.   Our latest build under openwrt backfire, we see dhcp requests failing to get a response.  We see the this on UBNT routerstations and UBNT Picos.  

An open ticket with openwrt exists at https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/7917 as well

Were ready and willing to dive in to help identify where to look to at least determine if this is a wpa_supplicant issue, kernel issue, or something in between, but are not sure where to start.  Any help would be appreciated.

Setting a static IP to the bridge yields success and traffic flows fine.    We have tried udhcpc and dhcpcd and both time out.

Connecting to a hostapd AP we can see the dhcp requests on its ingress i/f, and see its response, but on the station side we only see the request leave.

Other stations (our macs) connect to the APs fine.

Is there any known issues or any ideas on how to resolve?

Thanks in advance...  Were stumped...
