Description
Describe the bug
Sometime when you try to close the polkit window with esc just before it will otherwise close, it will close and instantly pop back. This window still has buttons and you can submit a password, but nothing happens. Even worse there is no process associated with this window, so (assuming you are using wayland) there's no way to close the window from another tty, you have to restart your window manager closing open applications without a chance to save. Note this has happened to me multiple times. Any fix would be greatly appreciated, this bug really sucks.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- run
run0in terminal - Wait till window is about to close
- Press
esc
Expected behavior
Window closes correctly when esc is pressed.
Screenshots
Nothing abnormal about the polkit window itself, very difficult to screenshot regardless.
