I've been experiencing this same bug for a few Xubuntu versions now. I'm not sure if it's fully/always related to bug# 316691 as I don't do any sort of network authentication here and never have. Been scouring the internet for ages now looking for a solution... all I've seen so far are hacks that seem unsafe and not recommended, or potential fixes that didn't fix things for me. Meanwhile the number of users affected (going by public posting locatable via Google searches) seem to be growing monthly... considerably more than who are lucky enough to stumble upon this bug and are participating here.
