Bug Description

I tried to run the graphic test on Jammy, after switching GPU profile then do a reboot, the session wasn't back. So I checked the service by "systemctl status checkbox-ng" and got result as follwoing.
https://pastebin.canonical.com/p/7TxTdSFQkG/
The tests need to reboot or poweroff all have this issue, I tried reboot/poweroff test as well.

I downloaded jammy from daily-build site, the uploaded date was 2022-03-26 08:25. I also tried to use the jammy image which uploaded by Paul in our MAAS, and it didn't have this issue, but that image in our MAAS should not be latest daily build.

The script (pm_test) used to perform reboots was trying to reactivate the checkbox systemd service from an x-terminal-emulator. But such command when invoked as root crashes:

Error constructing proxy for org.gnome.Terminal: /org/gnome/Terminal/Factory0:
Failed to execute child process "dbus-launch" (No such file or directory)

On wayland session, dbus-launch is not supproted.

The proposed patch ensures the respawn checkbox commands are always executed.
