Not sure about pinyin, but for ibus I need to set

    (simple-service
     'im-env-vars home-environment-variables-service-type
     '(("GTK_IM_MODULE" . "ibus")
	   ("QT_IM_MODULE" . "ibus")
	   ("XMODIFIERS" . "@im=ibus")
       ;; TODO: Are these still required?  If yes, try to get rid of them.
	   ("GUIX_GTK2_IM_MODULE_FILE"
        . "$HOME/.guix-home/profile/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodules-gtk2.cache")
	   ("GUIX_GTK3_IM_MODULE_FILE"
        . "$HOME/.guix-home/profile/lib/gtk-3.0/3.0.0/immodules-gtk3.cache")))

Hope it helps,
Tomas
