...but I guess logins over AMQP work?

In 2.6.1 the situation for logins to mgmt changed. We introduced user 
tags, and users without any tags can't use mgmt *at all*:

http://www.rabbitmq.com/management.html#permissions

So you probably need to make sure the LDAP plugin gives your users a 
"management", "monitoring" or "administrator" tag (depending on what you 
want them to do). Use the tag_queries parameter:

http://hg.rabbitmq.com/rabbitmq-auth-backend-ldap/file/default/README-authorisation#l61

i.e. something like:

{tag_queries, [{management, {constant, true}}]}
