Have you installed D-Bus via DESTDIR method?

If so, launch-helper needs to be root:messagebus owned and needs to have 
permissions 4754

chown root:messagebus /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper
chmod 4754 /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper

This might be the problem with helper permissions as described above.

That's true only if you are using systemd.
