ModemManager does, based on device discovery.  So it's likely that the
version of ModemManager that you typed as "mm??" isn't able to correctly
recognize the modem as a QMI one.  That is either a ModemManager
problem, a kernel driver problem, or a "modeswitch" problem (where the
device is not told to come up in the right mode by usb_modeswitch, if
the modem requires that).

If you can add "--debug" to the ModemManager service arguments (through
either systemd, dbus autostart, or whatever runs MM on your system) them
we could get more info.
