KDE Network Manager systray widget phantom devices

Hi, I'm having on the plasma-nm widget that resides on the systray some phantom devices that do nothing:

I'm fully updated, but still these connections show up.

Not sure when they started to appear, maybe from a week ago?

Any ideas?

Re: KDE Network Manager systray widget phantom devices

I faced the same problem about half a month ago. ```nmcli connection show``` but the command does not display any phantom connections

Good tip:

I have beside the ones that show on the widget a docker0 interface, the lo interface and a vpn0 interface.  Might be those?

Edit: It seams it is the docker0 and lo interface.

When selecting configure, and going to the LAN settings (down below) and selecting show virtual connections, the configuration panel shows the docker0 and lo interfaces, but still doesn't give a name to them on the widget.

It might be this, I suppose.
