Tried, but didn't make any difference.

Now I can make adhoc work 100% if I first put the device in wpa2
infrastructure and associates it with an AP. Then kill the
wpa_supplicant process, and start a new wpa_supplicant with adhoc
config.

If I just start with the wpa_supplicant adhoc config, it'll never set the ssid.

So, something is not right in the r8712u module or may be the firmware?

Thanks,
Jeff
