I do not remember network manager ever having support for 56k style dialup
modems.  It probably sees the usbserial port and try's to detect a cellular
data card which uses the same driver, but is unsuccessful and therefore
closes the port.  I guess that is less idiotic then trying to create a
cellular connection over a noncellular modem.
