My wireless network is listed in Network Manager, but upon entering the password it tries to connect and then re-prompts for a password. I could previously connect fine in Ubuntu 10.10/Fedora 16.

This issue occured in the stock Ubuntu 3.2.0 kernel (issue raised here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/929244), and also in the mainline 3.3.0 kernel when I tried that instead.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Select wireless network in Network Manager (802.11g with WPA2 in my case)
2. Watch the network icon animate while it tries to connect
3. Dialog box re-prompts for password

My wireless card details:

01:08.0 Network controller: Ralink corp. RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI
 Subsystem: Linksys WMP54G v4.1
 Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 32, IRQ 18
 Memory at dbff8000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=32K]
 Capabilities: <access denied>
 Kernel driver in use: rt61pci
 Kernel modules: rt61pci

dmesg output immediately after connection failed:
