Sorry, but I have no idea. A similar bug was reported some time ago by Rick Mills https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=382611 in Neon and Artful, but I cannot reproduce it.

The authentication is handled by PolicyKit (PolkitQt1). It has it's own configuration on how to authenticate and authorize the user. But as it has already been said, it is more likely that the authentication window is just hidden behind something else. After a little time the authentication window expires and the error message is shown.
