When the "connect automatically" option is enabled for many configurations, the first config in the list having the option checked is re-activated instead of the previously used configuration for the interface. If the previously used config for this interface was re-activated (when many configs have the "connect automatically" checked), instead of the first in the list having the option checked, it should yet solve some of the problems.
