Okay, so I think the issue is that we have an old debian/org.knopwob.dunst.service lying around, which overrides the upstream-provided org.knopwob.dunst.service. I’ll prepare a new upload in a second, but until then, you can add “SystemdService=dunst.service” to /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.knopwob.dunst.service.
Aside from that, you need to install the dbus-user-session Debian package. Things are set up correctly once “org.freedesktop.systemd1” appears in the output of “qdbus”. After fixing both of the above on my machine, dunst is dbus-activated and started as systemd user unit dunst.service. Verify using systemctl --user status dunst.service.
