I think that is the expected behavior when using the nmcli driver. To confirm, you can try the command yourself to see if the same result is produced. I'd love to find a way to avoid this issue. Any suggestions?

In the meantime, you could try a different driver like wpa_supplicant. I don't think that one has the same problem.
