Confirming/Triaged.
Seems like there are still some issues with asking for the wifi password
and possibly a race between NM getting that information and when the
keyring is ready to hand over the information; this is the only way it
could work sometimes after a reboot.

Title:
13.10: Multiple network manager authentication dialogs for saved
network
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
I'm using 13.10 on a Dell XPS13. Network Manager will sometimes put up
multiple (10+) authentication dialogs asking me for the password to
reconnect to my wireless network. Network Manager already knows the
password for the network, and automatically joins the network after
reboot/resume/etc.
I think there are 2 issues:
1) Network Manager asks for the password even though it already knows the
password
2) Network Manager puts up too many dialogs (this issue is reported
elsewhere, for example bug 1059529)
Steps to reproduce:
1) Connect to a wireless network
2) Leave the machine idle for awhile
3) Unlock the machine from the lock screen
Expected results:
After unlocking the machine, the desktop and all windows are onscreen. There
are no authentication dialogs from network manager
Actual results:
After unlocking the machine, the desktop and all windows are onscreen. There
are 10+ authentication dialogs from network manager
Regression info: I thought this was fixed in 12.10/13.04 but it's happening
for me in 13.10.
