[Discuss] ConsoleKit / OpenSUSE 42.1

I've upgraded to openSUSE 42.1 and am having a problem with what
appears to be ConsoleKit.  Specifically, it is showing my session as
not active and not is-local (the XXXX is my user ID):

Session6:
        unix-user = 'XXXX'
        realname = 'Robert Krawitz'
        seat = 'Seat6'
        session-type = ''
        active = FALSE
        x11-display = ':0'
        x11-display-device = '/dev/tty7'
        display-device = ''
        remote-host-name = ''
        is-local = FALSE
        on-since = '2016-01-05T00:05:57.375588Z'
        login-session-id = '43'

This results in a number of problems; media don't automount for me (I
have to provide a password), and ctrl-alt-delete to X results in an
immediate reboot, not a logout prompt.

I'm using sddm (same problem with kdm) and KDE5, in case it matters.

rpm -V shows the following files in /etc "off" in one way or another,
in case it helps anyone point me at what I should look at.  Nothing
very obvious is wrong with my pam stuff,, but I don't understand it
well enough to know exactly what to look for.
