netctl-auto not reconnecting after suspend

Hi,

I know this topic was discussed before - but after reading many posts and reading the wiki I'm still not able to make netctl-auto service to reconnect after suspend.

Right now I have only one profile in my netctl:

[kyrisu@chronos system]$ netctl list
* wlp2s0_punspace_a

I've disabled the netctl (which I understand is only for restoring the profiles after boot) service and enabled the netctl-auto service.
Unfortunately after waking up my laptop from suspend I'm not connected, and when I try to restart the netctl-auto service as per Wiki I get the following output in the journal:

May 19 10:28:15 chronos systemd[1]: Starting Automatic wireless network connection using netctl profiles...
May 19 10:28:15 chronos netctl-auto[9747]: The interface (wlp2s0) is already in use
May 19 10:28:15 chronos systemd[1]: netctl-auto@wlp2s0.service: control process exited, code=exited status=1
May 19 10:28:15 chronos systemd[1]: Failed to start Automatic wireless network connection using netctl profiles.
May 19 10:28:15 chronos systemd[1]: Unit netctl-auto@wlp2s0.service entered failed state.
May 19 10:28:15 chronos systemd[1]: netctl-auto@wlp2s0.service failed.

After waking up from suspend I am able to connect using the wifi-menu command.

Any help would be appreciated
