It is an installer problem. Once network settings are put into the startup
files NM doesn't manage that interface. For a laptop that is unacceptable.
I may have to re-visit oneric to see what the difference is.

Title:
  network manager applet doesn't work in precise

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  In precise 12.04 alpha (dec 8 build, alt iso), Either or both Xubuntu
  or Ubuntustudio (and presumably others) when the iso is installed on a
  laptop/netbook using the wireless device for a network connection. On
  boot the network manager does not show a list of available wireless
  networks. (in Ubuntu Studio the applet doesn't even show) If the
  wireless connection started during boot fails, network manager is
  unable to cycle the connection.

  If the install is done by failing the network connect and installing
  with no network connection, on reboot the network manager works as
  expected.
