If you setup your wireless with /etc/network/interfaces network manager 
will not care about that interface any longer. It is either network 
manager or /etc/network/interfaces.

If your post shows the complete interfaces file I don't see the line

auto eth1

and without that line it doesn't work for me.

Finally if that wpa key is not made up, you should better change your 
passphrase because now the world can connect to your wireless router.
