Comment 97 for bug 1951491

Hi, if you connect with VNC, then you are starting the session with the VNC
scripts, and this is actually an instance of the bug as I understand it, a
non-standard login. If this is how you reproduce it, you are simply
repeating what is common to the reports already here. There is something
wrong with the login process missing some part of the systemd setup. This
means it is not an Ubuntu or gnome or snapd or systemd problem, which is
why no one from this packages is interested in fixing it. It is not a snap
problem because snap is perfectly allowed to assume cgroups v2 are working
in our sessions.
