Bug Description

Ubuntu version: 22.04.3 LTS
gnome-settings-daemon version: 42.1-1ubuntu2.2

My system is incorrectly setting the time zone to "MST (Denver, United States)" while I am currently in Austin, TX which is CST.

geoclue shows the correct latitude/longitude:

$ /usr/libexec/geoclue-2.0/demos/where-am-i
Geolocation service in use
Client object: /org/freedesktop/GeoClue2/Client/7

New location:
Latitude: 30.376800°
Longitude: -97.893500°
Accuracy: 5000.000000 meters
Timestamp: Thu 07 Dec 2023 09:36:18 PM MST (1702010178 seconds since the Epoch)

which corresponds to Austin, TX.
My syslog shows 1000s of assertion errors in gsd-datetime:
