Both .desktop files are the same.
As workaround on laptop I've set 
NoDisplay=false
and then it displays in dash. 
Running from dash it still doesn't request authentication as on pc, but at least it doesn't crash.

Title:
  Different behaviour with same package versions

Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This is on laptop alpha-1 installation, there is no icon for it in app lens.
  Crash happens reproducable on initial run via alt+f2, apport then leads user to dupe bug 911834.
  It doesn't request authentication.

  On a pc alpha-2 installation no crash yet and it has an icon in app lens, so no need to run alt+f2.
  It does request authentication.

  Package versions are the same on both machines.
