The symptom you describe only occurs if the AP has encryption. On an open AP that is powered off before Sugar connects, the expected result occurs.
When an AP with encryption is selected just after it is powered off, dbus-monitor --system shows the device enters NM_DEVICE_STATE_NEED_AUTH. Therefore it is a NetworkManager problem.

This might actually be a NetworkManager bug - I had a very similar experience on a Gnome-using system right now.
