When there are OS updates GNOME Software used to show a list of which packages are going to get upgraded. This list was the same list as the one pacman reported.

Now, the list is always empty, even when there are package updates. This is probably related to #58163 somehow. It seems GNOME Software and pacman don't really get along anymore.
This task depends upon

And you're using the packagekit backend?

Not that I'm aware of, no:

11:00:40 ~ $ pacman -Q | grep kit
idnkit 1.0-3
libpackagekit-glib 1.1.9-1
p11-kit 0.23.10-1
polkit 0.113+34+g29ba7af-1
python-prompt_toolkit 1.0.15-1
rtkit 0.11+8+ge0a51fe-1
webkit2gtk 2.20.0-2

Both packagekit and gnome-software-packagekit-plugin are not installed

Then gnome-software has nothing to do with OS updates.
