Are you sure that it's the Audible Manager that authorizes the rights? I have often had a problem with titles taking an excessively long time to be added to the Audible Manager after downloading, such that I give up. Or I will get a popup telling me that a title hasn't been added to Audible Manager and I should add it myself. I have converted these fully downloaded titles without any problem.

I wish there was a way to know in advance exactly what the heck they're doing. I am still sitting on two gift cards from last year that give me six credits, plus several credits from my Silver membership. If Audible is going to be screwed up, I'll use up all the credits and say adios.
It's actually Download Manager that copies the DRM access to your computer. This usually happens during the step that say "adding to Windows Media Player" I believe.

While it is probably not that helpful at this point the Download Manager will fail to add your titles to the Audible Manager if the Audible Manager is already open. Close the Audible Manager after each download and this will not happen. Or, alternatively, let it happen, then re-name the file to something that doesn't contain 72,000 extraneous characters, and then add manually. I do this for the best results.
