Yeah. The other problem is how to login with another user if you have autologin user, described here:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-guix/2019-06/msg00302.html
Would you try Slim instead of gdm as I had workable config for Slim?
Guix needs some wiki how-tos for such questions as my and your. Github sometimes helps here
https://github.com/search?p=2&q=guix+config&type=Repositories
but not convenient and not at all.
