From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You might want to look at installing and setting up an authentication agent.

What I did instead (unrelated to Wayland) is installing udiskie and let udisks2 handle all the mounting. I just plug in the device and it gets automatically mounted in user context without me having to provide any passwords or whatsoever.
Thanks
I installed and added in autostart polkit-kde-agent
Now I can use ssd in Hyprland
Maybe in the future I will try your method with udiskie and udisks2
