Hi again, I'm glad to hear that the updated configuration worked for you. I'm not familiar with Lutris, but if it isn't recognizing your Guix-configured dbus, then I would guess that you might need to set an environment variable for that program to find it. Check its documentation to see how it locates the system dbus, and hopefully that will solve your problem.
