Physics Inspector stuck in authorization loop

[d-kleine]

Description

The Physics Inspector repeatedly requests re-authorization and does not remain authorized, unless simulation is playing or paused. It should work even when simulation is stopped (as it did in Isaac Sim 5.1).

Reproduction steps:

1. Create a new stage and add a ground plane.
2. Add any asset from the Asset Browser (tested with multiple different robots).
3. Open Physics -> Physics Inspector.
4. Select robot parent in stage view and click "Re-enable authorization" button in Physics Inspector.
5. Observe that authorization is enabled only for a few milliseconds before the inspector requires "Re-enable authorization" again. It seems to immediately fall back into an unauthorized state repeatedly, resulting in an authorization loop.

Additional Information

• Authorization only works reliably while the simulation is running via the Play button in the left panel menu of the viewport.
• Issue might be specific for Windows.

Hi, Thanks for reporting the issue! I can also repro this on Linux so it's not Windows specific. Will follow up internally.
