Upon further investigation, it was found that when using File>New Comp, this launched Nuke with the -q flag.
This flag prevents the "LiveGroup has local changes" dialog from appearing, along with other pop-up dialogs.
As this is intentional behaviour and not a bug, this issue has been closed.
Problem summary
When setting up a LiveGroup, if the user selects the 'Reload' button, Nuke will ask the user if they would like to discard local changes through a prompt:
If the user decides to set up a new comp using "File -> New Comp", the dialogue box will no longer appear.
This can cause issues with users losing local changes as they are not warned.
Customer reported version

Steps to reproduce

5) Within the new launched Nuke window, create a LiveGroup and press the 'reload' button
Result: The dialogue prompt will not appear for the new Nuke window
