I am seeing a very similar issue with the Dropbox indicator applet, and
after much experimentation I believe both issues (network-manager and
dropbox) are caused by a race condition within libindicate itself. I
have opened a libindicate task for this bug, hopefully someone from that
project will take a look.
** Also affects: libindicate (Ubuntu)

After boot, NetworkManager indicator menu only shows four entries

Bug description:
After I boot in to the LiveCD environment for Ubuntu 12.04, I click on
the NetworkManager icon in the top-right of the screen and it's only
showing four items:
--------------------------
| ✓ Enable Networking
| ✓ Enable Wireless
| ---------------------- |
| Connection Information
| Edit Connections...
--------------------------
If I then select the "Enable Networking" or "Enable Wireless" option
to disable that interface and then re-enable it, then the
NetworkManager populates with all the normal menu items (listing of
all WiFi SSID, VPN connection, etc.).
