Can't help you in detail, but I'm quite sure your issue is with
policykit (polkit) treating remote users differently from local ones.
A quick web search got me the following:

https://askubuntu.com/questions/1256669/configuring-polkit-to-allow-complete-control-remotely

but I can't be sure this solution is correct since I don't run your
flavour of Linux.

HTH,
Hanno.
