Bug Description

Binary package hint: plasma-widget-networkmanagement

I got disconnected from my home wireless network (and there are a couple of other wireless networks nearby, which I can see), I was unable to automatically reconnect for some time.

I then disabled wireless and then enabled wireless.This caused my wireless to connect again - as can be seen (attached screenshot) on the Interfaces pane on the left side, I am currently connected to my wireless router.

However, on the right hand Connections pane, I can see _no_ network: not the one that I am actually _connected_ to, nor the other wireless networks in my neighborhood (which can be seen in the second screenshot, which uses the SSID scan functionality in "Add New Wireless Network") . This behavior happens with both "Show More" and "Show Less" pressed several times.

This is a severe bug, because this means I cannot connect to another wireless network after I get disconnected from the first.
