Bug Description

I have a problem with connecting to a Miracast device via GNOME Network Displays package (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-network-displays) on Ubuntu.
It sees the device normally (I see the device name in "Available Video Sinks" list), but when I'm trying to connect, after some time I've got the connection failed with the error:
```
p2p-dev-wlp0s20f3: Authorization supplicant timed out
```
Other systems (Android, Windows, MacOS) connects to it successfully.

In the https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-network-displays it's described that wpa_supplicant requires the patch:
https://patchwork.<email address hidden>/

Maybe just adding this one-line patch could resolve this issue? Or it is already applied?

Thank you for your bug report. wpa 2.10, which is the version included in the current Ubuntu serie, has been released in january where the patch you reference is from 2020, so yes it is included. Could you perhaps report the issue on gnome-n-d gitlab?
