Yes, it's definitely a permission issue because i can't even run the power options as a user. My DE is Plasma, and indeed I checked different services like dbus, consolekit, looks like they are all up and running.

These issues sound related if the insufficient privileges issue was
raised by the NetworkManager GUI. Can I ask which desktop environment
you're using with sddm? The sddm session file is most likely not
starting a new consolekit session correctly. We recently fixed this for
the MATE desktop environment but I believe the other DEs still have this
problem.
