dhcpcd doesn't make DHCP client request upon failure of arping for wlan0

As per the dhcpcd documentation, when the arping is present it looks for the profile by that name before attempting dhcp however it doesn't seem to work on wlan ... possibly on eth too.

OS? dhcpcd version? Can you post your dhcpcd.conf? Can you add debug to it and post a log?

You should see something like this:
