I've been using the standalone TV client (which is just the standard
windows application packaged with a preconfigured Wine...) on a vanilla
fedora 23 appvm. Just downloaded the .tar.gz, uncompressed, and tried to
start from command line. There is no actual need to "install" that in
the form of service/systemd files.

Reading the documentation on the page for the linux packages (now the
link is "installation on unsupported distributions", but is just a
deeper description of the process), you'll find that there is a command
to check for missing libraries. Make sure everything TV needs is
installed. The application may/may not start anyway, but may not work if
everything it needs is not installed.

The command to check for libraries is

$ tv-setup checklibs

As I said, there is no actual need to install the service. If you want,
you can try Andrew's suggestions, but the question may be related to
another situation: what if you wanted to control the appVM with teamviewer?

Well, that's unsupported territory. I never tried, and AFAIR there is
something related to how Qubes composes windows from the various AppVMs
that makes it impossible to capture a "screen" of an AppVM. If you try,
please report your findings on the list.
