[Bug 1742608] [NEW] systemd sometimes doesn't launch unit files in `~/.config/systemd/user/`

[jappie]

Public bug reported:

I think it's because I have home folder encryption enabled and PAM has
some race condition for launching the systemd --user process.

This is *really* annoying because I launch the emacs daemon like that,
without it I can't start my editor in a muscle memory way.
