The problem is nm-dbus-nm.c :: line 260, where we call
nm_device_802_11_wireless_get_activation_ap().

security is NULL, but the function wants a non-NULL security in the case
of a non-scanned network.

It looks like nm_dbus_nm_set_active_device() should be creating a
security context?

But ... if I try to connect to an AP with encryption via "Connect to
Other", I get:

        NetworkManager: nm_ap_security_new_deserialize: assertion `dbus_message_iter_get_arg_type (iter) == DBUS_TYPE_INT32' failed
        NetworkManager: <WARNING>      (): nm-dbus-nm.c:254 (nm_dbus_nm_set_active_device): Invalid argument (wireless security info).

Does that point to something obvious?

You aren't seeing the same behavior?
