I disabled network-manager ( via an upstart override file ), and manually started wpa_supplicant with verbose logging ( -dd ) enabled. The scan results only show 2.4 GHz access points.
One interesting bit of information is that regulatory log messages from wpa_supplicant:
nl80211: Regulatory information - country=00
nl80211: 2402-2472 @ 40 MHz
nl80211: 2457-2482 @ 20 MHz
nl80211: 2474-2494 @ 20 MHz
nl80211: 5170-5250 @ 40 MHz
nl80211: 5735-5835 @ 40 MHz
nl80211: Added 802.11b mode based on 802.11g information
