i just tried again - problem is indeed NM - i assume the phy0 device is
just a logical wrapper for the sony device

Wireless swith after on off + nm disabled wirelss before - but -
important the softblock of device 0

0: sony-wifi: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: yes
        Hard blocked: no
1: sony-bluetooth: Bluetooth
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
2: phy0: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: yes
        Hard blocked: yes

manually unblocking device 0 (wireless light indicator is on but NM stil
disconnected)

0: sony-wifi: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
1: sony-bluetooth: Bluetooth
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
2: phy0: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: yes
        Hard blocked: no

rightclick disable NM and enable again - offers possibility to enable
wirelss again / refreshing NM possibilites and result is

0: sony-wifi: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
1: sony-bluetooth: Bluetooth
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
2: phy0: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no
5: hci0: Bluetooth
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no

i assume the problem is that NM can't handle the interaction with the
sony-wifi module or any other 3party level devices
