By default several abilities that Buzz snap version needs are not automatically enabled for snaps, user should manually grant snap ability to use these abilities. As stated in snap documentation snap’s publisher can request for these extra abilities to be automatically connected on install.

@chidiwilliams please post a request for automatic connection permission.
