STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Access system remotely via xrdp
2.  Set pokit policy to AUTH_ADMIN when refreshing system repositories, triggering offline updates and rebooting system
3.  Perform system update via discover app

OBSERVED RESULT

After updates are downloaded, the screen to initiate a reboot does not appear correctly and instead just refreshes the available update screen

EXPECTED RESULT

Screen to initiate a reboot and subsequent prompt from polkit to authenticate should appear if the policy allows for it

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma:

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Noorez 2023-07-04 18:25:33 UTC 
This issue appears to extend to reboot and shutdown as well. Instead of the expected authentication prompt, the screen simply goes blank and does not provide any other feedback.
Comment 2 Aleix Pol 2023-07-05 22:46:06 UTC 
Please report to PackageKit, Discover doesn't do any polkit calls.
