Ok now that i have installed karmic, this problem was the same behaviour as 
described by GonzO's last comment. (#14).
When I installed karmic I was on a wired network and there was no problem with 
the nm-applet showing an icon, even after a restart but when I got home I 
restarted without a ethernet cable plugged in and I got 2 volume icons (one of 
them was unresponsive to mouse clicks) and the nm-applet icon didn't show at 
all.

The only way to get it to show is to log out and log back in again.
Restarting the laptop doesn't fix it.

Geez, I hope this gets fixed in karmic.... I'm willing to help but not
sure what log files to give... I need a developer to tell me what file
and string to look for.
