So I just dealt with this for a 2nd time ( E profile got corrupted after a hard lockup ). I thought I document what was needed for me, at least for myself the next time it happens, if not for others who have the same issue ...
I need to run: polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 nm-applet ... on startup. nm-applet triggers a dialog asking for my password for gnome keyring, and after it's entered, I can successfully connect to saved networks.
