BCM43142: Arch freeze after wifi link up in Xfce4

Hi!
I have some not good issue

1. when wi-fi link is up I got next messages till wi-fi link goes down:

[   79.491164] wl_tkip_decrypt: Invalid key_idx 1
[   80.514672] wl_tkip_decrypt: Invalid key_idx 1
[   81.538018] wl_tkip_decrypt: Invalid key_idx 1
[   82.561426] wl_tkip_decrypt: Invalid key_idx 1
[   83.584961] wl_tkip_decrypt: Invalid key_idx 1
[   97.094130] wl_tkip_decrypt: Invalid key_idx 1
[   98.117457] wl_tkip_decrypt: Invalid key_idx 1
[   99.140888] wl_tkip_decrypt: Invalid key_idx 1
[  110.087530] wl0: link down (wlp2s0)
[  110.087627] cfg80211: Exceeded CRDA call max attempts. Not calling CRDA

2. after that I start Xfce4
3. without wi-fi all works fine in Xfce4
4. if I run in x-terminal "sudo wifi-menu" or "sudo netctl-auto enable-all" Arch freeze

I have broadcom BCM43142 wifi adapter.
linux kernel is 4.1.6 and broadcom driver is broadcom-wl-dkms-6.30.223.141-12.

All works fine till one day I got this issue.

Help, pls.

Hi, I am in exact same situation (same driver version), exept I use kernel 4.2 series My wifi is not freezing but my log is full of this message kernel: wl_tkip_decrypt: Invalid key_idx 1 on every network I connect, I suspect it is the reason for being unstable in times. Have you made any progres?
