Services should not expect for XDG_RUNTIME_DIR to be set.
Inferring from the past comment, this seemed to resolve an issue when
the service was launched with an _interactive_ user-account,
which tends to have this variable set by the login-manager.
This is not the case for system accounts and setting this variable
results in PulseAudio (launched by the same system user) failing to start
since it attempts to use a nonexistent directory.
Ideally, this service should have a home-service counterpart but the old
behavior can be emulated by setting the environment-variables field to:
(environment-variables
(list
(string-append "XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/"
(number->string (passwd:uid (getpwnam "myuser"))))))
* gnu/services/audio.scm
(mpd-configuration)[environment-variables]: New field.
(mpd-shepherd-service)[start]: Use new field.
* doc/guix.texi (Audio Services)[Music Player Daemon]: Document it.

Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/44820>.
Reported by Simon <lists@netpanic.org>.
This is a followup to bb124f6e9c.
* gnu/services/audio.scm (mpd-service-activation): Chown the parent of
DIRECTORY as well.
Until now it would wait for a PID file that'd never come.
* gnu/services/audio.scm (mpd-shepherd-service): Add 'requirement'.
Remove #:pid-file from 'start'.
(mpd-service-activation): Create the ".mpd" directory since that's what
the daemon expects.
Running 'guix system search mpd' would throw a backtrace because the
mpd-shepherd-service service start Gexp contained an unquoted call to
'getpwnam', which would look for a missing 'mpd' user and fail.
* gnu/services/audio.scm (mpd-shepherd-service): gexp-unquote only the
relevant variable rather than the whole expression.
* gnu/services/audio.scm (<mpd-output>): New record type.
(<mpd-configuration>)[outputs]: New field.
(mpd-output, mpd-output?, mpd-output->string): New procedures.
(mpd-config->file): Use mpd-output->string.
* doc/guix.texi (Audio Services): Document mpd-output fields.
Since MPD switches user, the pid-file must be in a writable dir. This
is now always /var/run/mpd/(user)/pid.
* gnu/services/audio.scm (mpd-service-type): Add a activation-service
extension.
(<mpd-configuration>)[pid-file]: Remove.
(mpd-service): Rename to...
(mpd-shepherd-service): ... this.
(mpd-file-name, mpd-service-activation): New procedure.
* doc/guix.texi (Audio Services): Document the changes.
