I can observe the problem in an up-to-date cosmic VM. The interface is correctly connected, but gnome-software fails to display the switch in the correct state. Killing gnome-software "fixes" the problem. So it looks like the status of the permissions are cached in the running instance of gnome-software, and not properly updated when changing them from the UI.
