Workaround by @8-mail-g worked for me. This question
http://askubuntu.com/questions/597333/get-wifi-password-into-ubuntu-
touch suggests it's because of a timeout occurring before the password
was entered.  Maybe on the coding side, this can be prevented by saving
the password temporarily and retrying the same password a second time
upon a single failure, if the reason for failure was a timeout?

Title:
  Can't connect to Wifi network secured with long PSK

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Confirmed
Status in indicator-network package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Device: BQ Aquaris E5.4 Ubuntu Edition

  I just got this device and wanted to connect to my WPA2 WiFi network
  which happens to have a 54 characters-long PSK. However, after
  entering my password (which naturally takes a little while) and
  clicking on "connect", it just simply returns me to the overview of
  WiFi networks near me. No error message.

http://askubuntu.com/questions/306734/unable-to-connect-to-secured-wi-fi-from-nexus-7-running-ubuntu-touch-13-04

  I have enabled developer mode and edited the network manager file in
  /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ using adb shell. After that, I
  was able to connect to my network.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Set up a WPA2 network and give it a long password
  2. Click on your SSID on the list
  3. Enter your password
  4. Click "Connect".

  Expected result:
  Connected to the WiFi network

  Actual result:
  You see the list again and no indications that you are connected to the 
network. You aren't connected to the network.
