No, it would not be strange at all.  Network-manager is in it's own 
time-zone, and is often rather strange and hard to figure out.  Sometimes 
you must be patient, it does not scan immediately.

For CLI tools I prefer 'iw' to the older iwlist command, but either may 
help you.  If the device is scanning and finding other ap, then it 
probably is a network-manager quirk.  It often misses/adds/deletes aps 
from the list IME.

Good Luck,
