[SOLVED] After Systemd update...2 problems!

Yesterday I update my system and switch to the pure systemd as of arch linux wiki.
Everything is working well, boot time is lightning fast, every programs are working except for Amarok and Vlc.

When I click on the start menu (I'm using KDE) -> then multimedia and Amarok or Vlc, the icon bounce without opening the program's window.
I must kill the Amarok and/or Vlc process in the monitor.
Running in console show absolutely nothing for Vlc.
Running Amarok in sudo in console output:

QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
unnamed app(774): KUniqueApplication: Cannot find the D-Bus session server:  "/usr/bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally with the following error: No protocol specified
Autolaunch error: X11 initialization failed

All my daemon of before systemd are active and systemd setting are ok too.

Does anyone have the same behavior or can point me to a possible solution?

Thanks,

Perhaps you are running vlc in root, which is not allowed in standard vlc installs.

Vlc will not run in Sudo mode and the console output tell me that.

Anyone know if there is a systemd amarok service?

Vlc can be modified in ABS download PKGBUILD to enable-run-as-root FYI.

My systemd is root only and VLC opens correctly

Re: [SOLVED] After Systemd update...2 problems!

I try root login and Vlc won't start, but Amarok work in root login only.
Amarok with sudo does not work in my user account???

Any clues?
