Status of interface connections not properly updated in the UI

I can observe the problem in an up-to-date cosmic VM. The interface is correctly connected, but gnome-software fails to display the switch in the correct state. Killing gnome-software "fixes" the problem. So it looks like the status of the permissions are cached in the running instance of gnome-software, and not properly updated when changing them from the UI.

I have the same problem: GNOME software does not update the status of the interface.

Not going to be SRUed to cosmic which is neither nor a LTS nor the current stable version

Fix release for disco when?

It's uploaded and has to go through the Stable Release Update process which normally takes a couple of weeks to complete.
