I've also been having this issue since updating from 13.10 to 14.04.

There seemed to be about a 20% chance that the VPN client would work
correctly each time I invoked it, which led to frustrating repeated
invocations hoping to get lucky.

The one line hack from comment #34 appears to have made it work again.

Title:
  Prompts for both the user and group passwords even though group
  password has been saved

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “network-manager” package in Fedora:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  Using up to date 12.10. Despite the group password having been saved, I am being prompted to enter both my user password and the group password upon initiating a VPN connection. This is a new issue with 12.10. Thinking this might be related to the the 12.04 to 12.10 upgrade, I have tried creating a new VPN account, but got the same result. VPN type is "Cisco Compatible VPN(vpnc)".
