There is no such issue when I connect to the machine remotely via ssh
(with or without X11 forwarding):

qaa:~> sysprof-cli -- echo
Recording, press ^C to exit
==== AUTHENTICATING FOR org.gnome.sysprof3.profile ====
Authentication is required to profile the system.
Authenticating as: root

==== AUTHENTICATION COMPLETE ====

Profiler stopped.

But note that such a remote connection defeats the purpose of sysprof.
