Okay, I have figured it out and reopened the upstream bug. The interesting part is this: http://bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=204033 Starting NM from the command line after applying this patch results in the "Wired connection 1" string being translated. However when starting NM as a service the string shows up untranslated, so something else is wrong. Maybe upstart does not pass the environment to the services it starts?
