eligible for Kevin: active session ACLs. See e.g.:

VNC simply doesn't get the same acls as a local session.
I'm not sure what action you are looking for here.
I suppose someone could write up how to get polkit to do that, but as
noted in the bug that may not be a very safe mode to run.
(Then your remote vnc user could access things like webcams,
microphones, etc).
