Wifi-SoftAP Connection failure on custom board

I am trying to run the wifi-softAP example on a custom board using the ESP32-U4WDH chip (not a module).
Upon first power-on cycle, I did not see the SSID on my phone to connect to it. On second power-on, I discovered and attempted to connect to the Wifi AccessPoint.
This attempt failed to connect.
Running the exact same image on a DevKitC(solo-1) on which I have swapped the processor to a U4WDH and removed the Flash memory part. I get a successful logon every time. The DevKitC preceded the Custom Board, and the saved password stayed in my phone.

The attached files are from Putty, This build has every debugging log feature I can find enabled, and at level VERBOSE
Custom_U4WDF.log shows the failure case
DevKitC-U4WDH shows success.

In this case I am using the 4.0.1 build environment. using idf.py fullclean build to build the image and idf.py flash to load it.
