thank you for the clarification and the suggestion. i was confused by the timeout occurring after the message "Monitoring 38 ATA/SATA, 0 SCSI/SAS and 0 NVMe devices" as that seemed to indicate a successful startup.

it appears to have been just the number of devices, not an issue with any particular one. raising the timeout gave `smartd` time to start properly.

thanks again, this report can be closed as not-a-bug.
