I've not done this, but the documentation says:

Note: If the /etc/rc.conf is set up with the line ifconfig_ath0="DHCP"
then it is no need to run the dhclient command manually, dhclient will
be launched after wpa_supplicant plumbs the keys.

As such, I don't understand why you're running the ifconfig command
in /etc/rc.conf with the extra WPA flag.

Try making it  read ifconfig_ral0="DHCP" and see if that helps.
