Bug description:
While trying to reproduce another bug related with the last seen value
from the access points, I noticed that network manager is never really
scanning for new access points on my desktop, not even when not
connected.
$ sudo nmcli g logging level debug domains wifi_scan
Then powered an access point, but was never really able to see it.
From syslog, noticed that there is never really a scan, which explains
why the ap never goes away and why it is not able to find it in the
first place.
If I force a scan via cmdline it works as expected (and I noticed a
scan also happens when changing connections).
Was also able to reproduce this issue on mako, with the following image:
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ system-image-cli -i
current build number: 173
device name: mako
channel: ubuntu-touch/devel-proposed
alias: ubuntu-touch/vivid-proposed
last update: 2015-04-16 14:58:58
version version: 173
version ubuntu: 20150416
version device: 20150210
version custom: 20150416
In the mako case, I booted with a known connection in place, it
connected successfully but it never really scans for other access
points. Scan works fine after disconnecting though.
