This occurs on Rawhide when trying to 'Restart' from Gnome System
menu.  My user does have policykit authorization to restart the system
(others logged in or not) and to shutdown the system, but neither
work.  At the moment I have to logout, then switch to VT1 and reboot.
GDM cannot restart either.

SELinux is preventing console-kit-dae (consolekit_t) "read" to
./org.freedesktop.hal.device-access.sound.override (polkit_var_lib_t).
