Bug Description
I have also reproduced this bug booting from the beta1 live DVD. Steps to reproduce:
1. Connect to a wireless network. Mine just presents a standard connection using IPv4 DHCP only. No DHCPv6 or SLAAC is available.
2. Disconnect from the wireless network (by choosing Disconnect from the network indicator)
3. Edit Connections (from the network indicator)
4. Set the connection that has just been connected to not connect automatically.
5. Add IPv6 manual settings. Mine are 2001:8b0:XXX::3, prefix 64, gateway 2001:8b0:XXX::1, nameservers 2001:8b0:
6. Save and reconnect to the network
Expected behaviour: default route of 2001:8b0:XXX::1 should be added and I should have both IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity.
Actual behaviour: IPv6 default route missing but otherwise IPv6 configured. IPv4 connectivity OK.
Output of ip -6 route show:
2001:8b0:XXX::/64 dev wlan1 proto kernel metric 256
fe80::/64 dev wlan1 proto kernel metric 256
Workaround: add the IPv6 default route by hand.
This happens on both my main machine (up-to-date on this morning's oneiric) and a spare machine I tested with the beta1 ISO. Details above are from the spare machine. I ran ubuntu-bug on my main machine so the attachments reflect that.

Confirmed/High; I was able to verify this failure before.
