NM can't ignore the state since cfg80211 enforces it.

Can you please use rfkill (http://git.sipsolutions.net/rfkill.git) to
see what's going on? Like print out events while you slide the button
and use NM etc.

One thing that would be possible -- does your poll callback work while
the interface is down? Try to tell NM to turn off the wireless network,
and see whether the state ever changes with your slider.
