Just a small observation - when I recently tried WPA-PSK and had both
wpa_supplicant and hostapd running in the foreground with debugging
enabled the station didn't associate. It worked without changing the
configuration when I run both without debugging. I didn't have time to
analyze it.

I remember that Sam once mentioned that Windows stations are unable to
associate with FreeBSD AP when hostapd is run in debug mode, because
debug made the AP's timing less precise or something. Maybe the last
changes make the FreeBSD station also less tolerant?
