You probably also need to enable a service called NetworkManager-
dispatcher or nm-dispatcher.

It looks very wrong to start ModemManager from a dispatcher script.
Those scripts are invoked often and at various times, you don't want to
start ModemManager every time something happens with a networking
interface.

Instead, start ModemManager as a regular system service, just like
NetworkManager.
