Network-manager doesn't always close dialog after authorizing changes.

[TToft]

Binary package hint: network-manager

Problem:
Sometimes when trying to authorize changes made in network-manager by pressing the Accept button after inputing password in the pop-up dialog network-manager does not close the password dialog. Repeat clicks on Accept or Reject (? "Annuller" in danish) does nothing.

What I expected:
Network-manager should authorize the changes and close the dialog after pressing Accept.

Temporary solution:
Clicking the X closes the dialog and network-manager and changes are applied.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Network-manager
2. Make some changes to interfaces
3. Press Apply
4. Fill in password and press Accept*

* - Attached screen shot shows the pop-up dialog after the password has been entered and Accept has been clicked.

Note:
I think the error in XsessionErrors.txt regarding yelp is from another bug i just reported and not related to the current problem.

Not sure where the error really is coming from.

Changing CPU scaling causes the same problem. See attached screen shot "Skærmbillede2.png".
