Well, I can not reproduce the behaviour you are describing (and it works for all the other users of NM too). For me the above three steps are sufficient. Besides I cannot see a reason why renaming file could help. Dbus does not care for the file name but only for it's content. I guess you are experiencing a strange side effect here. If you are definitely sure that you are not doing something wrong and that dbus is behaving incorrect, you should probably file a bug report against *dbus* after further investigation.
