** Description changed:
Environment:
Fresh installation of Lubuntu 20.04 (it also occurs in a fresh installation
of Ubuntu 20.04)
Steps to reproduce the situation:
1) Lubuntu -> Network Manager -> Edit Connections -> Add SSID of a hidden
WiFi network
2) Network Manager does not connect automatically with the hidden Wifi Network
However, once the WiFi network SSID is set to broadcast mode, it starts
connecting automatically.
The workaround suggested in Bug 1542733 works here.

However, it was suggested to create a new bug report for later releases.
Please provide your assistance. Thank you.
