Jay, Surely you mean 16.04 not 10.04. In Kubuntu even if fwupd is installed it won't start up on its own.
In Ubuntu it starts up with your session by gnome-software looking for firmware updates from fwupd. If you could reproduce by manually running fwupd and attaching a debugger you may still be able to help assist even if it doesn't happen by default in Kubuntu since fwupd doesn't automatically spawn.
