This bug persists in 14.10 and affects all Ubuntu based distributions
As far as i can tell it the "Cloned MAC address" feature is just broken, the type of WiFi adapter or any other settings are irrelevant.

The bug has been around for 7 months,  it has me looking into switching to a different distro at this point.

How do we get it fixed?

Title:
  after upgrading to 14.04 wireless mac spoofing wont work

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  after setting the mac to change in networkmanager i try to connect yet it never will, when looking at the logs it says it got disconnected by local choice (reason 3), it appeared it was because the mac wasnt effectively changed but then again i tried to do so disabling network-manager -> macchanger -m -> enabling network-manager, i checked with ifconfig if the mac has changed and it did however the result was the same
  maybe its because of this http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2013/CVE-2013-4579.html?

  **UPDATE**

  now works doing the macchanger procedure, directly from network-
  manager it doesnt
