[Bug 419933] [NEW] knetworkmanager does not set custom mac address

[Joachim Wilke]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager-kde

I set up a wired connection in KDE's network manager using plasma-
widget-networkmanagement. There is the option to set a custom MAC
address for the device, which I need to get identified correctly in our
network. However, the MAC address is not set when the connection is
established, which causes DHCP to get no configuration.

This behaviour can be verified by syslog and ifconfig respectively.
Manual configuration using ifconfig works.

Attached is the corresponding syslog, the hw address is 00:21:70:11:22:33, expected is 00:21:70:55:66:77.
Using plasma-widget-networkmanagement 0.1~svn1013816-0ubuntu1.
