This is the expected behavior in a daemon session of Emacs: the daemon
doesn't initialize the window-system (i.e. the GUI aspects of Emacs)
until the first GUI frame is created.

So if you want this initialization to work in daemon sessions, what
you need is to move it to server-after-make-frame-hook.
