Indeed.  I installed it, timesync is enabled, removed ntp, and indeed after
about a 20m suspend, once resumed time syncs up again.  Since I've not noticed
any adverse effects so far, I'll stick with this solution.  Thanks!

(My original question about expected behavior of the system settings panel is
still not answered, but I'll leave that alone for now ;).

Title:
  time never catches up to reality after VM sleep

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When I run Ubuntu in a VM, then sleep the VM for a little while, I
  expect time to eventually catch up to reality, because I have "Set the
  time ... Automatically from the Internet".  However, time never does
  catch up.

  I can trigger a catch up by toggling the datetime indicator to
  "Manually", wait a little bit, then toggle back to "Automatically from
  the Internet".  I may have to do this a couple of times to fix the
  time.

  This tells me that it's not a problem with the VM environment
  specifically, but a problem with coordinating time over the internet.
