Hi Tim

Sorry it took me so long just to type 1 `cat` and 2 `ls`! ^_^'

… But I eventually did!

```

org.a11y.Bus.service@

❯ ls $HOME/.guix-profile/share/dbus-1/services/
org.gnome.evince.Daemon.service@  org.knopwob.dunst.service@
```

So, apparently the `ca.desrt.dconf.service` is missing, which would
explain the problem. The thing is, I have no clue how it's supposed to
be started? Is it something I missed in the doc? Or is there something
else I need to do because I'm using bspwm?

I checked my guix system config, and the service section looks rather basic:

```
(services (append (list (set-xorg-configuration
                           (xorg-configuration
                            (keyboard-layout keyboard-layout))))
                     %desktop-services))
```

Any help welcome!
