I'd remove "auto wlan0" - you cannot start this interface
at boot time, but after the insertion of the device was detected - even if
the device _is_ plugged-in during boot, the firmware download does take
time. Be sure to have the hotplug package installed.

I'm still confused about the wlanctl-ng from your previous post...
