That's not diceware. It's random garbage.
Not saying it cant be used as a password (it can), but use almost
certainly relies on some password keeper. Postit on the monitor?

Nothing wrong with that password. Works fine as it is.
Did you check the keyboard settings? Change them on setup?
There's a host of characters here that wont play nice with different
keyboard settings: my guess is that that's your problem.

Or of course, you havent remembered the password properly - despite it's
being immediately memorable.

Backslash character might be a problem, especially \n
Maybe the pipe symbol | and ampersand & too.

Yes, I would try typing the password with the backslashes doubled; might 
work.
