@Dariusz: my wpa-roam settings point to the right place. my wifi does
establish and wpa_state=COMPLETED
$sudo wpa_cli status

Any ideas what is causing this?

Title:
wpa-roam broken by fix for ifupdown #1337873
Status in wpa package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in wpa source package in Trusty:
In Progress
Status in wpa source package in Wily:
In Progress
Bug description:
[Impact]
* In some configurations recurrent ifup/down calls are broken due to
a false-positive recursion detection.
* In certain situations it leaves interfaces unconfigured (in this
case: WLAN interface connected to WiFi network, but dhcp fails).
[Test Case]
* Setup wpa-roam configuration based on what is in comment #6
* Wait until wpa_supplicant connects to a wifi network
* Run ifconfig to check if the WLAN interface received dhcp info
* Expected result: WLAN is fully configured according to dhcp settings
* Actual result: WLAN is connected to WiFi but not configured
[Regression Potential]
* Fixed upstream, fix present in Xenial.
* Debdiffs contain a backport of an upstream fix.
[Other Info]
* Original bug description:
The following versions of ifupdown introduced a recursion check using
"IFUPDOWN_<interface>" environment variables along with a new locking mechanism
for ifup (see #1337873):
0.7.47.2ubuntu4.2 (in Trusty)
0.7.54ubuntu1.1 (in Wily)
0.7.54ubuntu2 (in Xenial)
This recursion check breaks the wpa-roam feature of wpasupplicant,
preventing it from loading the logical interface specified by id_str
after associating with an AP. Specifically, after upgrading to one of
the above ifupdown versions, the '/sbin/ifup -v --force
"$WPA_IFACE=$WPA_LOGICAL_IFACE"' command run by wpa_action in
functions.sh fails with an "ifup: recursion detected for parent
interface wlan0 in post-up phase" error.
To fix the issue, functions.sh needs to run `unset
"IFDOWN_$WPA_IFACE"` before calling /sbin/ifup to prevent ifup from
detecting the recursion. The attached patch implements this change.
