This integration worked before, but something changed. I'm guessing it's a user/group permission issue based on the logs. I would appreciate some feedback on this process while I troubleshoot.

Setup:

• Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.1
• aarch64
• podman version 4.3.1
• ImageName: "ghcr.io/home-assistant/home-assistant:stable"
• ImageDigest: "sha256:067490d7b65cfa8b9e494a9447b0e5a7876be83ead7ec01738681c55d66e7cfe"

I created this script to be able to recreate my HA service with the latest container image:

#!/bin/bash

# Variables and env
PODMAN_NAME=home-assistant
loginctl enable-linger $USER
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/$(id -u $USER)

# Cleanup
systemctl --user stop container-${PODMAN_NAME}.service
systemctl --user disable container-${PODMAN_NAME}.service
podman rm -f ${PODMAN_NAME}

# Pull images
podman pull --arch=arm ghcr.io/home-assistant/home-assistant:stable


# Create Home Assistant image
podman create \
--arch arm \
--env TZ=America/New_York \
--volume=/opt/home-assistant/config:/config \
--volume=/opt/home-assistant/config/www/media:/media \
--device /dev/ttyUSB0 \
--network=host \
--restart=always \
--name ${PODMAN_NAME} \
ghcr.io/home-assistant/home-assistant:stable
#--privileged \
#--annotation io.crun.keep_original_groups=1 \

# Generate user service with podman generate systemd
podman generate systemd --new --files --name ${PODMAN_NAME} --restart-policy=always

# Setup systemctl files correctly
mkdir -p ~/.config/sysetmd/user
mv container-${PODMAN_NAME}.service ~/.config/systemd/user/.

# Enable the service
systemctl --user enable container-${PODMAN_NAME}.service

# Start the service
systemctl --user start container-${PODMAN_NAME}.service

Recently my Zigbee integration stopped working. I'm certain it has to do with groups/user permissions for the container and the mounted usb device. here are the logs.

I've toggled the --privileged parameter because that's worked for others, but i don't think it behaves the same in podman as it does in docker. I've also added the home-assistant user to the dialout group based on another post but still the zigbee integration fails to load.

Any hints on where to look next?
