You need to make sure that both adapters have the proper firmware.
I didn't see the lines from dmesg
The next thing I would try is.
Disable the intel from bios and try with the USB only - does USB adapter
work?
Enable intel again and remove the USB - does intel adapter work?
Enable both - do they work?
Strange that rfkill is showing only 1 adapter.
This might be also a wheezy udev naming issue.
# grep wlan -r /etc/udev/
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules:#ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="wlan*",
NAME="wlan0"
check on your side. In wheezy they are normal eth* names, but you would see
the MAC in the previous line there.
