For anyone who might be interested I found a solution here:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/869955/kubuntu-16-10-wifi-stuck-on-waiting-for-authorization

I don't understand why this works but NetworkManager now connects 
automatically at startup.

Hi,      
      
I'm running an up-to-date debian testing and kde plasma version 5,10.5. After a 
recent upgrade network manager now fails to automatically connect to my 
wireless 
network. The connection fails with a "connection deactivated" notice.  After 
that I 
can connect by manually selecting my network connection from the network 
manager's list of available networks. But I wonder why it has stopped working 
automatically? Has anyone else encountered this problem?
