Do you have any special configuration that makes the device unmanaged?
Can you paste the output of 'NetworkManager --print-config'?

Also, if you run 'nmcli general logging level trace', repeat the nmcli
commands above and grep the journal for 'unmanaged:' you should see
more details about why ovs0 is considered unmanaged.
