Michael, you can work around that for now by running killall nm-applet with a script in your sleep.d directory:

I have a wired and a wireless connection at home. I usually disconnect the wireless via network-manager while at home. After suspend, both connections come up. If I use the network-manager indicator to disconnect, I am unable to-- I can navigate the menus in the indicator but clicking on things does not work (eg, disconnect from my home connection, Edit connections, etc). This seems to be related to suspending for some period of time: ie, it seems to always happen after suspending at night/resuming in the morning whereas booting the computer, logging in, suspending, resuming and using the indicator straight away tends to work fine.
