Description
I've added a model, and checked it works with `sudo /lib/security/howdy/cli.py test`. The file `/usr/share/pam-configs/howdy` is correct. `pam-auth-update` lists howdy as enabled.
But `sudo -i` doesn't enable the IR camera, it just shows password auth. Any idea why?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the difference between `sudo /lib/security/howdy/cli.py test` and `sudo -i` on Ubuntu 23.04. Inspect `/usr/share/pam-configs/howdy` and the enabled entries reported by `pam-auth-update`; done means `sudo -i` activates the IR camera rather than showing only password authentication.
