I'd avoid doing that globally. If you really want to have a PAM-less
system, then edit the unit to set this through its Environment= instead.

Try setting SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL=debug for the user@ service unit to see what
happens here. (This is a separate instance so it doesn't inherit the debug
level that pid1 has...)

Also, I might've missed this, but does anything *create* /run/user/1001
here? Normally [email protected] would be the one to do
so, and I see "waiting for: [email protected]" in the logs, but
I don't see anything else – did that service actually succeed? is the path
owned by UID 1001?
