nm-applet is different then NetworkManager which is a program that made
to run by a script in /etc/init.d/. You are running NM script  not the
network script? Also NetworkDispatcher must also be running. If all the
right scripts are not triggered then nm-aaplet will not work.
network is the script running by default.

Otherwise I have never seen the behavior you are describing.
