Public bug reported: I'm using Kubuntu 18.04 installed from a daily and updated to current.
When I restart my pc, NetworkManager cannot connect to wifi. According to logs (autoattached and here: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/fmcF6B5T6x/) the problem is that NetworkManager cannot get the password. If I wait until it errors out or click "Disconnect" then "Connect", it works perfect. I've seen users in some forums (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=233519) telling that the problem is that when NetworkManager boots, KWallet is not yet available and so it doesn't have the password to connect to the wifi network. But if you click the "Connect" button, then KWallet is available and then it works. Maybe NetworkManager should depend on KWallet at boot (just Kubuntu, of course).
