That's strange, Plasma NM (networkmanagement-0.8.95 in Gentoo) saves secrets in kwallet by default to workaround this problem. Secrets should not go to wpa_supplicant.conf unless you check "System connection" in the edit dialog.

Ifnet causes some problems in my Gentoo, so I always disable it.

Check if file /etc/xdg/autostart/nm-applet.desktop exists, if it exists then remove it.
