Bug Description
I use TLS authentication to connect to office network, and the certificate's password is stored in the keyring. When I login after reboot, I'm asked for the keyring password (which is different from the login password), and then the network connection is established.
However, when the machine is returning from stand-by mode (suspend to RAM), the network manager would try to establish connection for a few seconds, and then show the dialog with connection properties. The password is already entered, so I just need to press OK to establish a connection. Howerver, the whole process seems unnecessary - why wouldn't network manager connect automatically, if the keyring is already unlocked?
The worst thing is that, when this happens, the certificate password is also REMOVED from the keyring! So the next time I have to enter it manually.
I found the following work-around for this problem. I copied ~/.local/

Sorry, I forgot to mention - I'm using Lubuntu 13.10. The same problem seem to appeared in Lubuntu 13.04 as well.
