I also have the same problem, but I found what was making it fail.

I have 2 wired ethernet cards, eth0 and eth1. eth0 is disconnected. eth1 is configured like this in /etc/network/interfaces:

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
up /sbin/wondershaper eth1 984 302
down /sbin/wondershaper clear eth1

With this configuration, the NetworkManager icon appears as connected but no devices are listed when I click on it. If try to open a OpenVPN connection it fails. But after commenting the wondershaper lines, the two interfaces get listed in NetworkManager and VPN works.

Looking at NetworkManager logs it seems it's not enabling eth1 whith wondershaper lines.
