Just to confirm I am still seeing this in 18.10.

I seem to have found a solution. Install polkit, in my case sudo apt install lxpolkit And then, it may be useful to check the Default applications in Menu -> Preferences -> Default applications for LXSession , select Core Applications , and make sure 'Polkit Agent' is set to lxpolkit.
