I have no idea what Wifi-menu is, sorry.

All I can see is that a systemd service has failed.
I don't use systemd or ArchLinux so I can't help much at this point.

What I do, regardless of OS, is set wpa_supplicant and dhcpcd running 
outside of any network management stuff as they can look after 
themselves just fine.

I'm pretty sure arch ships with a dhcpcd service (don't use an interface 
specific service as that won't work with dhcpcd-ui).

So look into that and if it still fails to work, provide logs please.
