As expected I could solve the issue in a test via flags=(attach_disconnected).

Although I had cases where the issue appeared and others where it never showed up - didn't find the difference for that yet. Never the less the fix will help the affected cases and should not break others.

The worst is that I found this to be hiding the actual error message.
In my case where I was seeing it ntp was "actually" complaining about bug 1737998.
But I think atm most ntp errors might look like the apparmor deny which makes this a bit more severe than I thought at first.

Opened an MP for it at [1].

@Martin - do you test Debian as well and if you have apparmor enabled there does it hit there as well? Just to know if you have a bug I could post the fix on

@Martin - since I failed to see when it hits and when not - if you can test from a ppa [2] (or modify the case to have the one line change) it would be nice if you could confirm the fix. If you happen to see why it only happens "sometimes" let me know.
