Help with network (wireless) connection on Raspberry Pi Zero W #30

Hi there, I'm using the image built from the raspberrypi-zerow using otg-ether from the following build command:

nix build -f . \
  -I nixpkgs=nixpkgs \
  -I machine=machines/raspberrypi-zerow \
  -I image=images/rpi0-otg-ether

and I'm having trouble setting up the wireless connection after booting. I'm able to successfully ssh over USB, but then I'm having trouble setting up wpa_supplicant. I had hoped to be able to launch the wpa_supplicant systemd service as described in the NixOS installation manual (https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/index.html#sec-installation-booting-networking) but it seems that systemctl start wpa_supplicant) is not working on this build, which also means that I can't get wpa_cli to work. I was wondering if you'd been able to test wireless setup using this image and whether you have any advice for getting this to work. Thanks in advance!
