You *may*, but I think it's one of those cases where you'll need to figure it our on your own anyway. Until you have narrowed down what is going wrong, filing a bug is likely to only cause the maintainers to ask you for (a lot of) info. > > > Having root logged in a terminal, I tried to check the state of > > > pipewire.service: > > > systemctl --machine=myuser@.host --user status pipewire.service > > > > > > to which I got the reply: > > > Failed to get properties: Transport endpoint is not connected > > > > The way that myuser@.host is implemented is surprisingly complex.

Assuming NNNN is the uid, No, NNNN is a (pseudorandom) number assigned to the service. Every time you execute 'systemctl -M myuser@.host', this invokes 'systemd-run', which in turns causes 'systemd' to start a new 'run-uNNNN.service' unit. > Looking at the logs for user@1000.service, there's nothing pertinent.

The usual method to debugging those is to set permissive mode and then check if the issue still reproduces.
