Public bug reported:

When wifi is disconnected by the user, the only action that usually
happens in the top bar is the disappearance of the wifi connection icon.

After installing the libvirt-daemon-system package, when wifi is
disconnected, the wifi icon does disappear (as expected). However, in
its place, a wired connection icon is displayed. On connecting to wifi
again, the wifi icon replaces it. On disconnecting, the wired connection
icon reappears.

The wired connection icon is something like this :

wired.svg.

This has been reproduced on two laptops with Ubuntu 24.04. Also on a
Live USB (24.04.3).

More details can be found in the following Ubuntu Discourse thread

replaced-with-a-wired-connection-icon-after-disconnecting/71505
