I have had this problem before, and the only solution was a new install. I'd like to find a better solution.
I am running Kali in a virtual (VMware 12.5.1 build 4542065) environment on Windows 8.1.
I last patched about 2 weeks ago.

Authenticating BrlAPI clients now defaults to using policykit too.
It means that logged-in users can now run orca and similar programs
using brlapi without having to be able to read /etc/brlapi.key,
which is thus not world-readable by default any more.
