This is likely the core problem, and it's also probably the cause of the
wpa_supplicant failures too.  You can test this out without NM running
by simply doing:

ifconfig wlp0s4f1u1 up

and see if it returns an error or not.  Does it?  Does anything show up
in 'dmesg'?  If we can't get 'ifconfig up' working for the device,
clearly NM won't work either...
