[Bug 2026291] [NEW] Polkit fails to ask for authentication on remote (xrdp) sessions

[Noorez]

Public bug reported:

1) Login via an xrdp session
2) Attempt a reboot
3) Screen goes blank without prompt to reboot (despite the policy being set to AUTH_ADMIN)

or

1) Set update configuration in Discover to perform offline updates
2) Perform update operation
2) Screen to perform reboot does not appear and instead refreshes the update screen

These operation works as expected in gnome sessions when asking to
reboot or refresh system repositories, trigger-offline-updates, and
reboot
