Hmmm.  Are using using %desktop-services?  Or are you manually
specifiying only the services you need?  I know that I tried to use only
the specific services that I wanted, and that failed...

I have an easier time just providing a custom %my-desktop-services like
this:

(define %my-desktop-services
  (modify-services
      (remove (lambda (service)
                (member (service-kind service)
                        (list
                         avahi-service-type
                         bluetooth-service
                         gdm-service-type
                         geoclue-service
                         ;; I customize my pulseaudio-service down below,
                         ;; so I need to remove it here.
                         pulseaudio-service-type
                         )))
              %desktop-services) ;;end of remove services
    (guix-service-type
     config =>
     (guix-configuration
      (inherit config)
      (max-silent-time %15-minutes)
      (extra-options '("--max-jobs=2"))
      ))
    (network-manager-service-type
     config =>
     (network-manager-configuration
      (inherit config)
      ;;(dns "none") ;;DO NOT update resolve.conf
      (vpn-plugins (list network-manager-openvpn))
      ))
    (mingetty-service-type config =>
                           (mingetty-configuration
                            (inherit config)
                            ;;auto login as joshua
                            (auto-login "joshua")))))

(services (cons* ...
              %my-desktop-services))
