Happens to me on 14.04 as well. As I don't have a hardware switch for
the WiFi, I just "sudo killall NetworkManager", which also fixes it for
a while.

Title:
  Unable to Connect to Wi-Fi with Saved Password

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

Bug description:
  It's been months. Before this my Wi-Fi used to work fine.

  Now I cannot connect to Wi-Fi at my office as long as I let Ubuntu remember 
the password.
  The "Wi-Fi Network Authentication Required" dialog keeps popping up asking me 
to enter my password.
  It's acting like when you enter a wrong password.

  And yes, I am sure the password is correct.
  Because if I select "Ask for this password every time", then usually it 
connects without a problem after I enter the same password.

  I guess it's worth mentioning that it still fails sometimes, even I let it 
ask for password.
  It just keeps failing and asking for password again and again.
  In such cases I turn off the WLAN adapter with the hardware switch, and then 
turn it back on. This usually fixes it.

  This only happens at office. Everything works fine at home.
  And my Android phone connects to the same office Wi-Fi without a problem.

  The Wi-Fi security settings are as following:
  Security: WPA & WPA2 Enterprise
  Authentication: Protected EAP (PEAP)
  Anonymouse identity: <left empty>
  CA certificate: (None)
  PEAP version: Automatic
  Inner authentication: MSCHAPv2
  Username: <my corporate id>
