Seen something similar, not sure if it's related. I use a desktop machine connecting via wireless, never over ethernet. Normally, NM attempts to connect to wireless as soon as I log in, but on some occasions lately, it seems to think it's got a wired connection - nm-applet displays that icon, and it doesn't prompt for keyring password. It certainly doesn't have a wired connection - no cable is connected, and /sys/class/net/eth0/carrier reports 0. This is running NM 0.6.5 and nm-applet 0.6.5, both build from tarballs on an LFS system. I've been running those for a while though - the only things that have changed that might affect NM are a) rebuilding NM with the patch for Atheros signal strength, and b) upgrading kernel from 2.6.20.7 to to 2.6.21.5.
