Title:
  Can't use networkmanager from lightdm

Status in NetworkManager:
  Unknown
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in unity-greeter package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After upgrading to 16.04  desktop (unity) (clean install) from 14.04,
  (so not really upgrading, but you get the point) I noticed that
  lightdm with unity-greeter (all stock, nothing changed) can't connect
  to WiFi with network-manager.

  WiFi works after loggin it, but it should be working before also, if
  not, what's the point in having an icon there :)

  I get the following message: Failed to add/activate connection. - (1) 
Insufficient privileges. - see image.
  This worked fine in 14.04.

  I have noticed this problem in both my desktop (Broadcom WiFi) and
  Laptop (Intel WiFi) - So it has nothing to be with the chip.

  Feel free to ask for more info.

  Edit:
