Setting the version back (to 2.10 I think) solves that. There is a Manjaro.forum post if you face that issue.

In testing branch Manjaro is a great and up to date distro.

Just tried this and can confirm that wifi still doesn't work, until I downgraded wpa_supplicant to 2.10.  That got it working again.
However, KDE was broken.  It would constantly spam messages about ksystemstats crashing.  Downgrading back to stable was quite the nightmare.  Lots of packages changed names, which pacman couldn't handle in the reverse direction.

I am using KDE Plasma 6 myself in the testing branch. It works fine for me. Might be worth to check in their forum ?
