Shawn B it sounds like your issue might be related to this one, since it's fixed by restarting dnsmasq. Do you have the newer dnsmasq version (you need dnsmasq-base 2.76-4ubuntu0.1 or better)?
Just to note: it's definitely true that this bug will impact VPN users; that's how I ran into it. Basically, anything that causes changes to DNS configuration will hit this: so starting / stopping VPN and also suspend / resume. However, if your problem is solved by switching versions of NetworkManager then it's not this bug. Also if the problem is NOT solved by restarting dnsmasq then it's not this bug. In general, the above version of dnsmasq definitely fixes _this_ bug, so if you have that version and you're still seeing problems then it's not _this_ bug. You should file a new issue in Launchpad, with all the details you can obtain.
