This is affecting more than just the password setting. Anything that tries to set AccountsService fields isn't working. They are failing because the user is not authenticated via policykit.

But this is only because policykit is using the allow_any field of the org.freedesktop.accounts.change-own-user-data permission. Which is only used if the requester is not a part of a logind session. logind is correctly marking the session as active. But for some reason, policykit thinks the app is not in the session.

Looking into why.
