if that command doensn't show you being associate then there's no need 
to try to get a lease...

sorry - i don't know much about the cisco card.
Is there some other process running that's messing with your association 
  (wpa_supplication , network manager...)?

maybe somebody with more experience with a cisco card can help you.
