Well... I am not sure, whether it will help or not, but I had two installations upgraded 13.04 -> 13.10.

One worked fine, other one got this very same problem. I am not completely sure, is this crude workaround or not, but I found help in this archlinux forum thread as all symptoms were the same.

To be exact - post #5 had the thing, that solved the problem - polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 is up and all related stuff is usable again.

Maybe this will provide some help...
