Hello,

This is permission issue. You must be in group `gamemode`.
This group is used in `/usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d/gamemode.rules`
provided by `gamemode-daemon` package.

The bug is that the package installer does not create this group.

After manual create `gamemode` group and add yourself to this group
tests are passed.

Regards,
Robert Paciorek
