[Solved] Gnome Date & Time using WiFi

Every time I boot Gnome 3.8 my time reflects UTC. It is not until after about 5 minutes or so does the time fix itself into the correct timezone.

I believe this might be caused by the WiFi not being up when Gnome tries to figure out the time. I have ntpd and NetworkManager.service (not dhcpcd) enabled with systemd. My /etc/localtime is correctly set to symbolically link to America/Los_Angeles.
Another small glitch is the weather plugin exhibits the same behavior. It shows a question mark until after WiFi link is up, then I must manually hit reload.

Is there any way to get these services to wait for NetworkManager or otherwise display the correct time?
