NetworkManager doesn't start dnsmasq on boot

Hey there,

I am using NetworkManager on GNOME + dnsmasq (and also + dnscrypt). My problem right now is that NetworkManager suddently stopped starting dnsmasq on boot.

/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf

[main]
plugins=keyfile
dhcp=dhclient
dns=dnsmasq

## Set static hostname
#[keyfile]
#hostname=foobar

## HTTP-based connectivity check
#[connectivity]
#uri=http://nmcheck.gnome.org/check_network_status.txt
#interval=100

dnsmasq.service is disabled (as stated in the wiki).

"/var/run/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.conf" Does not exist though.

Any ideas? Thanks !

/etc/dnsmasq.conf:

no-resolv
server=127.0.0.1#40
listen-address=127.0.0.1
cache-size=1000
