If you have not all ready done so, add the "+" to the end of the list and un-comment the line. I believe you will have to restart 'dovecot' for the change to take affect.
This alone made it work. Thanks! Given Gregory Finch's response, I'll have to guess that the default included + or something else is going on. I did have auth_username_chars uncommented (so I was not using the default) and without the + earlier.
I spoke too quick. It seems to be intermittent.
