Xfce4 & ConsoleKit Help

[SDNick484]

An update has somehow broken my consolekit settings so that now I can't execute suspend or shutdown from Xfce as a non-privileged user anymore. I know this is a consolekit issue however I'm not sure how to correct it. It was working previously, and a major pain to get it right in the first place. I have tried re-following the steps in this thread however it doesn't seem to help.

So far I have the following:
[ebuild R ] sys-auth/pambase-20140313 USE="cracklib sha512 (-consolekit) -debug -gnome-keyring -minimal -mktemp -pam_krb5 -pam_ssh -passwdqc (-selinux) -systemd" 0 kB
[ebuild R ] dev-libs/glib-2.38.2-r1:2 USE="-debug (-fam) (-selinux) -static-libs -systemtap {-test} -utils -xattr" ABI_X86="32 (64) (-x32)" PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7 -python2_6" 0 kB

[ebuild R ] gnome-base/gvfs-1.18.3 USE="archive avahi bluetooth cdda fuse gdu gnome-online-accounts gphoto2 gtk http libsecret udev udisks -afp -bluray -ios -mtp -samba -systemd {-test}" 0 kB
[ebuild R ] sys-power/upower-0.9.23-r2 USE="introspection -doc -ios -systemd" 0 kB
[ebuild R ] sys-auth/consolekit-0.4.6 USE="acl pam policykit -debug -doc (-selinux) -systemd-units {-test}" 0 kB

I am running ~amd64 and have absolutely no interest in running systemd unless I absolutely have to.

My ~/.xinitrc looks like: exec ck-launch-session startxfce4

When I do a ck-list-sessions, I see only one session and [/url]both active & is-local are listed as FALSE (I recall they need to be TRUE, I just don't know what I need to do to fix them.

This is a single user laptop so I'm open to insecure polkit entries if that's an easier way to fix this problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
