Yes, it does.

/usr/lib/ConsoleKit/run-session.d/pam-foreground-compat.ck just
creates /var/run/console/<user> stamps which D-BUS checks for to grant
at_console. If they aren't there (either because you aren't at the
console, or CK isn't installed), at_console will be denied. As soon as
you install CK and log out/in, it'll come back.
