NM should be storing the BSSID of the hidden network if you've ever successfully connected to it. Then, NM uses that to match up the hidden scan result (the AP still shows up, just with a blank SSID) with the real SSID. Can you run: iwlist wlan0 scan when this happens to you and report the scan result for your AP? Also, does this connection have the "Available to all users" box checked in nm-connection-editor?
