Title:
VPN toggle button not working in gnome shell

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in gnome-shell source package in Plucky:

Status in gnome-shell source package in Questing:

Bug description:
SRU Justification:
[ Impact ]
The VPN toggle in the gnome shell menu does not actually trigger the expected
action, meaning the VPN is not enabled when it should be. This patch resolves
the issue.
In general, the gnome-shell and vpn settings are not moving together.
[ Test Plan ]
1. Click to enable an openconnect vpn in the gnome shell menu
Expected behavior: The indicator toggles, and the actual VPN state is updated.
Actual behavior: The indicator toggles, but the VPN state is not updated.
If the connection is already active, click on the toggle again.
Expected behavior: Connection should be disabled
Actual behavior: Connection remains active
[ Fix ]
Manually activate the switch handle on toggle state update
[ Where problems could occur ]
Regression risk should be minimal since the feature as-is is broken.
If any bugs exist in the implementation of the toggle state change
handler, those may now appear on the code path of the toggle switch,
which may still be unexpected to users.
[ Other Info ]
Original report details:
I have some openconnect, and wireguard vpns.
When I click to enable an openconnect vpn in the gnome shell menu, the
indicator toggles, but nothing happens, when I click on the vpn
settings, it is not enabled.
When I click on it again, which should disable the connection, then it
connects.
The problem first appeared in 24.10, still exists in 25.04
