I've noticed that certain changes to my own user require reboot.

Others, which involve bringing previously non-Guix controlled user
parameters under control of Guix, seemed to require me to remove the
user from my system configuration, reconfigure, and then re-add the
user. I'm not sure what nobody's GuixSD user configuration would look
like.

Neither is a good solution, but could you try them out?
