Can't login with SDDM after switching to systemd-homed

I followed https://systemd.io/CONVERTING_TO_HOMED/ to switch my existing user to systemd-homed. However after that I was not able to get my user listed nor log in via SDDM. Following https://www.freedesktop.org/software/sy … stemd.html I edited /etc/nsswitch.conf and the user showed up in SDDM.

However, Whenever I log in to Plasma using SDDM, I just get a blank screen with just a cursor. I can log in as that user from a tty. I created a normal user using `useradd` and that worked without any problem.
I tried using Lightdm. There the user was not listed, but I could enter the username and password and it let me log in normally.

I can log as root in another tty and check `homectl` and it shows that the user is active and the home directory is indeed mounted, which means the login must have succeeded.

Here's the output of journalctl -xe - https://pastebin.com/VeuckvZq and the xorg log - https://pastebin.com/KmFrZGmX.

Note: This is a recent install (1 day old), but the home directory is from a previous install.
