From the log, connection :1.11 made a call to org.freedesktop.timedate1, then 
:1.12 made a call to the bus to get :1.11's Unix user ID. The reply came (note 
the "8" is not the reply value!), and then :1.12 replied back to :1.11 with an 
error (doesn't say which error).

There's nothing wrong with D-Bus.

The service you called decided to send you an error. Why that is, you'll need 
to ask the developers of the service in question. I don't know if systemd-
timedated can accept authorisation using PolKit or if it is UID-based only. 
You'll need to ask systemd folks.
