Linux – network manager not listing wifi

When I use NetworkManager command tool to scan for wireless networks the output is empty.

root@radxa:~# nmcli dev wifi list
SSID    BSSID   MODE    FREQ    RATE    SIGNAL  SECURITY    ACTIVE
root@radxa:~#

but if use iwlist, the scan is ok:

root@radxa:~# iwlist wlan0 scan
