shows incorrect network & vpn icon (both connected and active) (7.83 KB, image/png)

Description Terry D. Boldt 2013-10-22 19:32:11 UTC 
Created attachment 257869 [details]
shows incorrect network & vpn icon (both connected and active)

When the VPN is connected, the network manager icon shows a red, slashed circle on top of the ethernet icon. 

Using Kubuntu 13.10

Under Kubuntu 13.04 and the icon showed a closed padlock. The red, slashed circle indicates that the network is disconnected. However when hovering on the icon, it displays that the network is connected and the VPN is active. I have verified that the IP Address is that of the vpn gateway.
