I have had this problem, with F-9 and F-10, for some time.
Also, I don't find it as easy as you suggest to re-connect.
I get into the dreaded infinite loop,
where NM asks me repeatedly for my key.
[NM seems to suffer from short-term memory loss.]
I have to re-boot, which makes suspension rather pointless.
