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.
