I also think, that it is not a problem of network-manager. I also have this problem, that the connection disassembles again while trying to establish it (deauthenticating by local choice (reason=3)) But I only observe this on a specific network. Windows computers and my Android device can connect to it, only Ubuntu can't. Setting a static IP address solves this problem and the connection works in my case. I think, maybe the threshold for getting an IP address from the DHCP server is set too small. In case you have a slow DHCP server it takes maybe longer. If one would wait 500 miliseconds longer, you would get an IP (this is maybe what the other devices do). This network I speak from was not secured (open network). Uninstalling network-manager did not solve the problem. I also tried to connect with the shell tools.
