Guix issue

Howdy,
I installed guix binary re instructions at
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Binary-Installation.html

guix-daemon.service is loaded active running according to systemctl

but when I try to run the hello program or a pull, it kicks me out of the session, I have to log back in and all my work and running programs are gone, I have to restart everything.

The following clue from syslog:

Mar 28 06:48:00 trisqdesk guix-daemon[878]: SIGPOLL
Mar 28 06:48:00 trisqdesk guix-daemon[878]: unexpected Nix daemon error: interrupted by the user

I am in Flidas on my laptop. Guix is running on my desktop in Trisquel 8.

In the terminal I do see it start (have yet to get the locale set up so it warns about that) and have even watched it start the pull from hydra etc but suddenly session shuts down and I am back at the login screen.

Anyone else experience this, any ideas?
