Public bug reported:

When I try to connect to wireless networks, I usually use the GUI in the
top-right of the screen to select a network. I get a prompt which says
that to connect I require a password. If I put the network password in
the textbox and I press Enter (or click on the button) the prompt closes
but it doesn't connect to the network and the password is ignored. I
usually have to go in the Wi-Fi settings, select a network's settings
and put the password in the textbox in the Security Tab. When I apply
and select the network it connects and all is fine from that moment on.

I'm on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, Release 16.04 (lsb_release -rd).
