Can't connect to hidden WPA access point until unhidden

[RuiDC]

Binary package hint: network-manager

Problem in Live amd64 version of Karmic Alpha2, regression from Jaunty.
iwlist scan wlan0 shows the hidden accesspoint, but specifying ESSID when connecting to hidden network results in failed attempt and eventual re-prompting loop for WPA password.

please try to connect to your hidden AP and attach your complete syslog after reproducing this.

Does it never work, or just not sometimes?
