Same problem here like Benjamin Fogel.
I used gnome-ppp (still wvdial, isn't it?) in jaunty to connect through usb 
modem in japan.
cause i couldn't get it working with wizard from networkmanager. Maybe it's 
because we cannot set up init string and stupid mode using that wizard from 
network manager, imo. FYI, it even killed my modem before when I used the 
network manager in hardy to connect to the internet, took a week to have it 
fixed :( That's why i don't want to use network manager anymore to connect 
through my modem.
the funny thing is, this problem didn't occur in Ibex, I could just connect to 
internet using gnome-ppp then pidgin can connect to my accounts too.
the only temporary workaround is to disable my account in Pidgin, then 
re-enable it again. But it's so annoying.

So i wonder, which one is responsible for this? pidgin (and firefox,
etc), or network manager?
