Public bug reported: After I resumed my laptop from suspend, it would not connect to wifi. For a while, it seemed confused about its connection state, then it displayed "disconnected", and showed that there were no wifi networks available (which is not true).
To debug the problem, I ran "nmcli d wifi list", which showed no results. Then I ran "iwlist scan", which also showed no results. Then I tried "sudo iwlist scan" - which showed all the wifi networks, and actually caused the network manager to start working again. It connected to a network successfully, and so on.
