Problem with Network Manager and Gnome Keyring in Cinnamon

I have recently been having problems with Network Manager remembering WPA2 passwords.  When I go into the network connection settings and enter the password, it just doesn't save, producing a blank password field when I open the settings again.  The really strange thing is that if I store the password and then immediately hit connect from the same window, it connects fine.  When I try to connect later, no window pops up, it just disconnects me from the current WiFi I am connected to.

I am currently using Cinnamon 1.9 and no desktop manager.  I have followed the instructions for "Starting keyring without GNOME" in the GNOME Keyring Arch Linux Wiki page.  It used to remember the password and worked great up until a couple of weeks ago.

Does anyone have any clues as to what the problem is?

Re: Problem with Network Manager and Gnome Keyring in Cinnamon

What do you mean by "no desktop manager"?

Did you see the problem occurring after upgrading Cinnamon?
