Sorry for the delay, I was in the australian outback without notebook and internet access, and then busy with moving my (physical) home.

I'll attach my /etc/network/interfaces (stripped down, some irrelevant things removed).

My wpasupplicant.conf contains an entry like

network={
        ssid="athome"
        priority=100
        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
        psk="somepassword"
        id_str="athome"
}

so the wpa supplicant scripts successfully choose the athome entry in /etc/network/interfaces.

The problem still exists, although in most cases I simpy shut down the notebook anyway. If I need to
take down the interface only, I have to call "wpa_action wlan0 stop" manually.

I guess it could work if I put this command as a down command in either the wlan0 or the athome stanza. But the next thing to do is to upgrade the notebook to feisty.
